Family Mass Invitation

During this Mass, our Year 6 students preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation will also be making their Confirmation Commitment. It is an expectation that all Confirmation Candidates attend this Mass.

 

We warmly invite all families from our school community to join us to celebrate the Feast of the Ascension.

 

Morning Tea will follow in the Multi Purpose Room.

 

Confirmation Immersion Day

Last Tuesday, the Year 6 students participated in their Confirmation Immersion Day, where they engaged in a variety of meaningful activities designed to deepen their understanding of the Sacrament of Confirmation. Throughout the day, students explored the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit, recontextualised their chosen saint, and considered how they are called to live as disciples of Jesus in their daily lives. Guided by their teachers and supported by prayer and reflection, the students were encouraged to think about how the Holy Spirit is present and active in their own lives. The day was a special opportunity for spiritual growth and preparation as they continue their journey toward receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation.

Confirmation Information Evening 2025 

On Thursday 29 May we will be holding a Confirmation Information Evening for parents/carers to attend with their child. This will be held in the Multi Purpose Room at 6:30pm, and it will be facilitated by Beth Walsh from Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools (MACS).  

 

Please refer to the note which was handed out on Monday for further details.
