First Holy Communion:

Congratulations to the ten children who received their First Holy Communion at Mass this morning:

·      Payton Dickson ·      Greer Dickson ·      David Fonseca ·      Angus Hanning ·      Lily Middendorf

·      Jelena Morrell ·      Jack O’Connor ·      Alia Ryan ·      Sophie Tait ·      Adam Ward

This was a lovely celebration with many family members and parishioners joining us afterwards for a special morning tea up at the school on a beautiful spring morning. Thank you to all those who helped with the Mass and with the morning tea – Room 7 was transformed into a first class restaurant and looked amazing. Loads of cups of tea and coffee were served and everyone took the time to make it a memorable occasion for the children. Thanks again for all your support. Thank you Donald for the photos.
