I want to take this opportunity to wish all students in our Parish who received their leaving certificate results all the best as you embark on the next stage of life. As you begin this journey let the words of Mother Teresa be a gentle guide “yesterday is gone, tomorrow has not yet come, we only have today – let us begin.” Fr. Fitzgerald
