First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion

First Holy Communion Mass: 13th June 2026

We celebrated a truly wonderful First Holy Communion Mass on Saturday 13th June, where 27 of our children, including 3 children from the parish, received Our Lord Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament for the first of many Holy Communions. The childrne read, participated and sung beautifully and were a real credit to us. May God bless these children always. 

First Holy Communion Programme 2025- 2026

Our First Forgiveness/ Holy Communion programme begins in the Spring term each year. Please see key dates for the current academic year in the document below. There is an expectation that parents attend all parents' meetings and families attend all preparation Masses, in addition to fulfilling your weekly obligation to attend weekend Mass. 

'Remember Me'

As part of the post-communion reflection, the children will share the beautiful hymn 'Remember Me', written by our friends Dan and Emily from OneLife music. The track and lyrics are available below for children who wish to practise at home.
