Warm thanks to all who came for the Mass celebrated by our Archbishop
last Thursday at St. Mary Magdalen’s to mark the centenary of St. Mary
Magdalen’s School. It was a very special occasion and I warmly thank Mrs.
Gallagher, Headteacher, and her Staff , and the pupils and parents who made
this a joyous and lovely celebration. Special thanks to the Ladies Association
for managing the buffet in the school hall, allowing the “Refreshment
ministers” of St. Mary Magdalen’s to relax and celebrate this milestone in the
history of the parish. Following the good news of the Ofsted report there
was a sense of pride and thanksgiving as we celebrated our centenary Mass.
It was a lovely occasion, so reverently celebrated, and with so many
youngsters and young parents, giving thanks to God after 100 years of
proclamation of the good news about our Saviour Jesus Christ. ( Fr. Austin)
