Sacrament of Confirmation
We are about to commence the Sacramental preparation for Confirmation for children who are in Year 6 and above. This will commence early in Term 3.
To be eligible to participate in this Sacramental preparation, the child must have already received the Sacrament of First Reconciliation and the Sacrament of First Holy Communion.
This year, due to the COVID-19 restrictions, we are unable to run the program in the usual manner. Therefore, we are changing our preparation. Our parent information and children’s lessons will be going online. Every child will need an iPad/computer to participate in this program. It will be run through Google Classroom.
All lessons will be pre-recorded on Zoom and placed in Google Classroom. Children will be able to move through the 4 lessons at their own pace. There will just be links for the child to click on to go to the lesson.
The fee for this sacramental preparation is $25 – this covers the workbook, medal and certificate. We ask you to pay this when you come to collect your child’s Confirmation workbook from the Parish Office.
We ask ALL parents to watch the zoom recording of the Parent Information. This is very important for parents to understand what is happening. This is also in the Google Classroom folder for Sacrament of Confirmation.
To enter the Google Classroom, every child must enter a code. This will be made available early in Term 3.
If you have any questions, please contact the parish office.
