Earlier this month, our Primary School community came together to celebrate Mother’s Day with a very special morning honouring the incredible mums and mother figures in our ECC community.

The morning began with delicious muffin treats as mums lined up for the beautiful Mother’s Day photobooth, thoughtfully organised by the very talented Mrs Gillian Falloon (Learning Support).

Mums and mother figures were then invited to attend a special Mother’s Day Assembly hosted by Mrs Rene Araque and her 2.1 Class. Students shared some of their favourite things about their mums and performed a heart-warming song for the audience. The Primary Choir also delivered a touching rendition of Because You Loved Me by Celine Dion. We were also blessed to welcome Pastor Mynhardt van Zyl from Grace Christian Reformed Church, who shared a meaningful devotion on the love of a mother.

Following the assembly, mums and mother figures were invited into classrooms to spend the morning with their little ones. From arts and crafts to pampering stations, there were plenty of special activities for families to enjoy together.

Overall, it was a wonderful morning filled with love, laughter and gratitude as we celebrated the amazing mothers and mother figures who are such a valued part of our ECC community. We hope every mum left feeling truly loved and appreciated.

We asked our students what is the thing they loved most about their mums – here are their responses.
