Welcome to our blog which is to create a link between two Catholic schools – St. Mary’s Catholic Primary School in Bristol, England and John Paul II’s Salesian Primary School in Wroclaw, Poland.

We would like to present our schools’ everyday life here, so that we can get to know each other better and, hopefully, develop a longstanding and beautiful friendship. Although we live in different countries and cultures, we surely have a lot in common, as we share the same Christian values. Getting to know each other better seems a great adventure we are happily embarking on.

"Send a doughnut to Africa"

The time of carnival was really short this year and the Lent is about to start. The last Thursday of carnival, the Fat Thursday, was celebrated in our school in a bit different way than usual. As the tradition is to eat a gigantic number of super-delicious doughnuts on that day, some classes, usually the younger ones, had their snacks at some point of the day. But this year we decided to join an action organised by the Foundation of Friars Capuchins and help African children, too. It was called “Send a doughnut to Africa”. Each member of our school community (student, parent, teacher) could help buy two meals for two children if only they decided to forego one doughnut that day! And of course you could give up on more than just one :D I wonder how many doughnuts "flew" to Africa that day? :)
