Today is Shrove Tuesday. This morning, we burnt last year's Palm Sunday palms to ash so Father Keane can use them on Ash Wednesday to make the Sign of the Cross on our forehead and remind us to follow Jesus.
After swimming, Olivina from Caritas Tonga came to say thank you St Paul's Catholic School for your contributions of money. Olivina told us that Tonga has to sell things so that their kids can go to school and get clothes and food because Tonga is a small place and it is a poor place and there are many people living in Tonga. You can make lots of things with Mulberry trees just like what Olivina has around her hips. At Caritas, they help people in Tonga and other people around the world.
