4th November 2020
Dear Parents / Caregivers,
The preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation for Year 3/4 students will take place this term. As a part of the Reconciliation Program there will be a Commitment Mass, and a service where the children will make their first Reconciliation, all of which must be attended for your child(ren) to be properly prepared for this sacrament.
If your child is unable to attend the Commitment Mass please let me know so alternative arrangements can be made.
The dates for when these will occur are listed below. Class teachers will also assist in preparing students for the Sacrament of Reconciliation through the teaching of Religious Education, with a special focus on Penance during Term 4.
Please note – students can only receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation if they have been baptised. Your child is expected to attend Weekend Mass on a regular basis throughout this period.
| Reconciliation Commitment Mass Sunday 22nd November 9:00 am |
| First Reconciliation Service Wednesday 2nd December 1:10 – 2:20pm (Parents welcome but parent attendance is optional) |
If you would like your child(ren) to take part, please reply to the school SMS with your child’s name.
Kind regards,
Claudia Berson
Year 3/4 Teacher
