Our Journey with Jesus at First Holy Communion

18th May 2026

Congratulations to our wonderful Primary 4 children who made their First Holy Communion on Saturday.

What a truly beautiful and memorable occasion it was. We were filled with immense pride and joy as we watched the children conduct themselves with such grace and dignity throughout the Mass, contributing to every part of the ceremony with thoughtfulness and confidence. It was a privilege to witness such a special milestone in their faith journey.

Their reading, singing and prayers were carried out with reverence, sincerity and devotion, creating a deeply moving and uplifting celebration for all who were present.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to all of our parents and families for their continued support and for the tremendous care and encouragement given in preparing the children for this very special occasion. Your involvement and commitment have been invaluable.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who helped make this celebration so special — to our dedicated staff, Fr McAnenly, Noelle, Claire and the talented instrumentalists, our wonderful children and adult choir, Mary the sacristan, the photographer, and the videographer. Each contribution added to the beauty and success of the day.

Most especially, we thank our amazing children, who approached this important step in their faith journey with such enthusiasm, respect and joy.

We sincerely hope that the precious memories created on this special day will remain in the hearts and minds of the children and their families for many years to come.
