Confirmation 2025 

 

On Saturday 21st June, the Year Sixes received the Sacrament of Confirmation at 

St Patrick's Cathedral. We were very fortunate to celebrate this sacrament with our sister school, St Mary's in honor of the Jubilee year. As a conjoined cohort, we met with Bishop Rene Ramirez to talk about the importance of Confirmation, our mission as Catholics and the Holy Trinity. Learning about the symbolic representation of the Trinity and Confirmation was truly astounding.

 

At Confirmation, our sponsor is a very important person in our faith journey. This person represents what it means to be a catholic person, following in the footsteps of Jesus. There were grandparents, uncles, aunties and many other relatives next to the candidates to guide them up to the Bishop.

 

The Day of Confirmation was truly spectacular. St Patrick's Cathedral was in all its glory, with the sunlight shining through the stunning stained glass windows. The organ bellowed through the Cathedral with beautiful melodies and tunes. Walking up with our sponsors was truly spectacular, them right by our sides guiding us to the Bishop. Thank you to our Sponsors, family, friends and relatives who made this day a day we will never forget.

We ask that if it is your intention that your child receives the sacrament, that you complete and submit the Google Form that was sent out last week by your child's classroom teacher. The forms must be submitted by this Friday, 27 June.

 

Thank you for your continued support in your child's faith journey.
