Sacramental News: First Eucharist and Confirmation

Important Notice: Sacrament of First Eucharist - Enrolment Evening

This term, the parish is offering eligible students the opportunity to participate in the sacrament of First Eucharist.

If you are interested in having your child participate in the preparation for this sacrament, please come along to the information and enrolment session, which will be held at St Bernard’s Parish Church next Thursday (31st July 2025) from 5:00 pm.

Students who identify as Catholic, and who have completed the sacraments of Baptism and First Reconciliation are eligible to participate in the program.

Information packages will be sent home with eligible Year 4 students this week.

A Celebration of Confirmation

On the 28th of June, seventeen students participated in the sacrament of Confirmation.

Archbishop Christopher Prowse and Father Joshy Kurien led a beautiful Mass, with many family members and friends gathering to celebrate this important event with the students.

A big thank you to Mrs Coggin and Mr Maynard for their support of the students. Also to the wonderful team at Carroll College, led by Mrs Belle Barling and Mrs Anna Smart, for their contribution to the formation of the students. We would also like to thank our wonderful parent community for walking with your child on their journey. 

Finally, congratulations to the candidates! Your participation in all facets of this sacramental event was outstanding. You are now well and truly on your faith journey, and we can’t wait to see and hear what you do next!

Begin With The Heart

We will continue to promote our core school values with our Begin With The Heart Class Challenges each fortnight.

Having conversations at home with your child about these values promotes opportunities for us to collaborate in teaching our students how to contribute and to be a part of a community in a positive way. 

Kind regards,

Beck
