Our Lady of Malibu celebrated the first week of school by hosting a Welcome Back Breakfast on Friday. Children and their families attended a morning Mass. After service, the children headed to their classrooms while returning parents had the opportunity to greet the new parents in Sheridan Hall, where an array of breakfast items was set out. The school buzzed with the excitement of the first week back at school.
Kindergarten teacher Bernice Hayden shared a conversation between parent Juliana Reis Heinrich and her son, Marcelo: “On the first day of kindergarten Mom asked, ‘How was school, Marcelo?’ He [answered], ‘It was good! Can I go back everyday to the same school?’ Mom [said], ‘Yes, you’re coming back everyday for a long time.’”
OLM principal Michael A. Smith and Father Bill Kerze greet parents at the Welcome Back Breakfast on Friday morning.
Fourth-grade teacher Ruth Marsden said, “We are all excited to be back at school and the fourth-grade class at OLM is already working hard to be the best students they can be!”
Second-graders Declan O’Bryan, Kennedy Mudd, Henry Moder and Luke Miller are excited for their day.
