Grandparents Day at Villanova Preparatory School is an annual celebration that holds immense significance for our students, families, and the entire school community. This cherished event provides a special opportunity for grandparents to connect with their grandchildren in the setting where they spend a significant portion of their time - the Villanova school campus.

The day begins with a warm welcome to all grandparents as they arrive at the school. Upon arrival, please check in in front of the gym for Mass. Before entering, grandmothers will receive a corsage, and photos will be taken with their student.

The Mass is a beautiful celebration of the grandparent-grandchild relationship, filled with prayers, hymns, and blessings that honor the bond between generations and the values shared within our Catholic community. After Mass, we will walk up to the Grotto Lawn for the dedication of the St. Thomas of Aquinas statue and then join together for a lovely luncheon under the tents.
