MONONA — Imagine you’re a student on the playground during recess. Maybe you’re new to school, having a bad day, or haven’t had any luck making friends.
For kids that fit any of those descriptions at Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) School in Monona, they now have a way to make some new friends.
It’s called the Buddy Bench.
MONONA — “Hello, we’re from Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish in Monona. We understand that you recently moved into the area. We just wanted to welcome you to the neighborhood.”
That greeting — along with an apple pie, a bulletin, and a smile — are what the parish’s “Apple Pie Ambassadors” have given out nearly 50 times since May.

MONONA — On Memorial Day weekend, Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) Catholic Church and School in Monona will be hosting a “Backyard Bash,” a community celebration to help kick off summer.
The event will be held behind IHM School, located three blocks west of the Monona Golf Course at 4913 Schofield St. The festival begins on Sunday, May 28, and continues on Monday, May 29, following the Monona Memorial Day parade.
The spirituality and sights of the Easter season were still present at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Monona as two men — Peter Lee and Grant Thies — were ordained to the transitional diaconate by Bishop Robert C. Morlino on April 18.
MONONA — A walk down the hallway at Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) School in Monona doesn’t take too long — less than a minute to get from one end to the other.
Elementary school classes, up to grade four, are on one side, with the middle school classes, up to grade eight, on the other side.
While the distance is short, the journey from one side of the hallway to the other side can be a challenge for students as they become older and enter the middle school grades.
MONONA — Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish will host “Understanding the Impact of Anxiety on Children,” a talk by Justin Bangert, MS, LMFT, of the Center for Christian Counseling, Consultation, and Training, on Tuesday, Jan. 24, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in Marian Hall, 4913 Schofield St.
Parents of children of all ages are invited to the discussion about the common and uncommon effects anxiety may have on children.
