Religious Education

Welcome Back

Welcome back to the new school year. A very special welcome to our new families and students. The beginning of any new school year, while at times stressful, it is an exciting time when we can embrace new friendships, programs and learning.

Once again we have a very busy year with many celebrations and  events happening within our Religious Education program.

Opening School Mass

Please come along to St John Vianney's Church, Friday 7th February @ 9.00am to celebrate and give thanks and blessings for our year ahead.

Reconciliation

Rite of Acceptance Masses

This weekend sees the beginning of our preparation for Reconciliation with the Rite of Acceptance Masses. Families are asked to attend one of the Parish masses this weekend (8th & 9th February). Your child will be presented to the Parish community and receive their Reconciliation folder from one of the priests. It is essential that all children who are receiving the sacrament this year attend one of these masses. Each child will receive a First Reconciliation Commitment card on Thursday. This needs to presented at one of the weekend masses.

Family Faith Evening - Thursday 27th February

Our Family Faith Evening will be held on Thursday 27th February beginning at 7.00pm in the Brigidine Learning Centre. On the night, you will receive more information regarding the sacrament celebrations. It is essential that the child making their Reconciliation and one member of their family is present for the evening.
