Why do we eat Pancakes on Shrove Tuesday?
Shrove Tuesday is the last day before we enter into the time of Lent. Lent is for fasting and purifying ourselves, so Shrove Tuesday is the last opportunity for a little indulgence.
On Tuesday 13 February our students will enjoy pancakes they have ordered, and we remember, for Lent at St Brigid’s we are not giving things up, but we are taking on the responsibility of Stewardship and focusing on keeping the Learning Spaces and Playground clear and clean.
