# This is Lent

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/cathedralprimaryschool/images/CatholicLifeoftheschool/Displays/Lent_2024.jpg)   20 February 2024

We are now in the liturgical season of Lent and displays around school have been changed to reflect this. For Christians, Lent is a time of growth when we strive to grow to become more like Jesus. We do this through fasting (giving something up), giving to others and prayer. During class prayer time this week, all the children have written on a leaf how they are going to try to be more like Jesus during Lent and these are displayed in classrooms.
