Religious Education and Social Justice

Sacramental Program 2025

After consultation with our parish priest, Fr Werner, and the three principals & Religious Education Leaders of the schools in the combined parishes of Yarraville (St. Augustine’s)  and Kingsville (Corpus Christi and Annunciation) we have taken the opportunity to implement a combined Sacramental Program. 

We believe this will strengthen the bonds between the schools and the parish as we will be able to come together more regularly to share our faith and deepen our connection. With small numbers of students at each school who will be receiving the sacraments, it also allows us to combine resources and share the workload.

Below are the key dates for each sacrament:

First Reconciliation Workshop: Tuesday 4th March, 7:00 pm at Annunciation Primary School Brooklyn

• Sacrament of First Reconciliation: Thursday 20th March, 6:00 pm at Annunciation Church Brooklyn
