It’s time to start the countdown: Mission Day is just one
week away!
For the girls, next Tuesday, October 18, will be a day of
fun, treats, games, and laughter. Each
homeroom will become a themed booth, featuring donated items that can be
purchased by students, parents, and friends of the school. Some of the highlights from last year were
the Tropical Smoothie room, the Beary Best Bakery, and the Fenway Park booth.
But all this fun will also benefit a good cause: the
proceeds will go to Flying Kites Global, a non-profit children’s home in
Njabini, Kenya, striving to provide exemplary care to some of the world’s most
vulnerable children.
Several Ursuline alumnae have volunteered in Kenya with
Flying Kites Global, bringing the spirit of Serviam
with them around the world. On Mission
Day that spirit will be right here at Ursuline as the girls raise funds to
support the children of Kenya through Flying Kites Global. Some of the proceeds will also support Ursuline missions around the world.
Please see the Weekly Notes/Events page for the Wish List
for Mission Day.
In other news, the Dedham Transcript caught up with Ursuline Academy’s team
at the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk last
week. Check out the article here!
