By George – primary pupils in Shoebury made a formation of the St George flag for the patron saint’s day
PUPILS of St George’s Catholic Primary School in Shoebury celebrated their saint’s day.
The school walked to St George’s parish church, in Ness Road, in the morning for a special Mass, whilst the afternoon was spent learning about St George through fun activities. One of these was to make a human St George cross in the school playground.
Headteacher Paul Parascandolo said: “St George’s Day is a very important day for our children, who are very proud of their school and the fact they share their patron saint with the rest of the country.”
