Religious Education

Our Prayer Spaces.....

Each year our classes take great pride in decorating their own prayer cloth. This year we have also made our own class candles which were blessed by Fr Martin at our opening school Mass. Taking part in creating a unique prayer space helps our students feel more connected to pray time at school. 

Sacramental Program.

Enrolments forms have been sent home with children in Grade 3 who are eligible to receive the sacrament of their First Reconciliation this year.  If you did not receive the paperwork but would like more information please ring the Parish Pffice 94016398 or email Rikki Winduss on rwinduss@saseaford.catholic.edu.au 

Preparation Evening Reconciliation:  Wednesday 13th March 6.30pm in the church 

Junior Legion of Mary

Can my “Yes” make a difference? Mary’s “Yes” at the age of about 15 changed the world. Consider the changes in your life if you say yes to her by working for her. She would not be asking you to take on anything that would be too difficult for you, only something that is good for you and someone else.

How the Legion can help you.

The Apostles prayed together and went out in pairs to bring the Good News to people. In the Junior Legion, this is also our way. Each week we reserve a time to pray, to go out and do some active work. This work is a great stepping stone for adult responsibilities by giving you the necessary experience in helping others, within a caring system.

What work can be done by juniors?

● Serve at Holy Mass

● Give out Miraculous Medals

● Help at home

● Visit the elderly at a nursing home

● Correspond with other Junior Legion Groups

● Encourage family members to pray the Rosary

● Help out at Parish functions

● Hand out bulletins before Mass

● Plus many more activities as requested by the Parish Priest.

We have fun raising money for different missions and charities. In May, we raised $805 by having a car wash which was great fun. Each school holidays we have a fun day and the past holidays we went to see “Minions: the Rise of Gru” then lunch followed by a fun play at Ballam Park.

If your child shows interest in joining the Legion we pray you will encourage that interest. We meet at St Anne’s Catholic Church Meeting Room each Saturday of the School Term at 4pm to 5pm and once a month stay on for the 6pm Mass. In-between we have pizzas. We encourage all families to be with us at Mass on that particular Saturday. All families are welcome to stay the hour with the children if they so choose.

Meeting Day: Saturdays during school term

Time: 4pm to 5pm

Place: St Anne’s Catholic Church Meeting Room
