FIRST RECONCILIATION & FIRST COMMUNION

Congratulations to all of the children who received the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Communion. The celebrations were lovely recognition of the milestones the children have reached.  The impact of COVID-19 restrictions were obvious in the limited numbers able to attend, however the solemnity of the occasions were  not lost.  The children were reverent and overcame their initial fears to participate fully in the celebrations. A big thank you to all of the teachers and parish staff involved in preparing the students and organising the Masses.  We are very fortunate to have dedicated people to support families in nurturing their children's faith.
