In the First Grade, you’ll prepare your child for celebrating the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist which follows in second grade. At home we ask you to:

  • Read the Children’s Bible together so they begin to know the story of their faith.
  • Incorporate the basic Catholic prayers into your daily life; Sign of the Cross, Glory Be, Our Father, and Hail Mary and other family prayers such as Grace, morning prayer etc.
  • Attend Mass as a family.

A Children’s Bible and Basic Prayer Card will be available at the Opening Parent Meeting.

There will be three (3) Parent/Child Family Meetings during 2023-24 on Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. in the Parish Hall.
