First Holy Communion & Reconciliation

The programme commences in September and finishes end of May early June of the following year. Children from Year 3 upwards are invited to enrol in the programme. Sessions are held on a monthly basis. The children work in groups led by committed catechists. The classes usually last an hour and a half and are held on Saturday mornings in the Pastoral Centre. Parents are spiritually informed in separate sessions, as set out in the programme that is distributed at the initial parents evening. Parents should attend these sessions where a speaker is invited to assist them to an enrichment of faith at this time of sacramental encounter.
