First Holy Communion

What a wonderful Mass was celebrated for First Holy Communion! The children were so reverent and excited to receive the Eucharist. It was a lovely family celebration to witness this special occasion.

We thank Father George for celebrating the Mass, the children for their thorough preparation, their very supportive parents, the wonderfully supportive school community – teachers, children who sang like angels and the Sacramental Team. St Patrick’s truly is a great team. Congratulations!

 Classroom Reconciliation

Last Friday Father George visited the Year 3/4 Classroom to celebrate Reconciliation. We are so very grateful to our Parish Priests for giving us this opportunity to celebrate this Sacrament within a Classroom situation.

Mass

This coming Friday, Year 3/4 will present the Mass. The theme of the Mass will be, ‘The Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary’. Year 5/6 will also attend this Mass.

End of Year Celebrations

The Year Six Graduation and Thanksgiving Mass will be held on Friday 11^th December at 12 noon. Due to COVID restrictions our numbers of attendees may have to be limited. More information will be provided closer to this date.

This Mass is traditionally our chance to support and give items of food to the St Vincent de Paul Society. The Society will compile hampers from the items and distribute these to those in our community who need assistance during the festive season.

As you do your shopping over the next few weeks please keep this in mind. Whatever you can give will be appreciated.
