• ⛪️ Sacrament of Reconciliation 🙏🏻

  Thu 07 Mar 2024

  Congratulations to all the boys and girls in Primary 3 who made their First Confession this morning in St Mary's Church, Dunsford. It was a lovely ceremony and the children were fantastic throughout. 

   

  They have worked so hard over the past number of weeks in preparation for today and this was apparent in their responses throughout the service, in their readings and in their knowledge of the Sacrament. 

   

  Many thanks to everyone who assisted the children in their preparation for today, including class teacher Mrs Howland, Fr McCloskey for a very special service, Mrs McGrath for leading our school choir and our P3/P4 classroom assistant Mrs Mullan for displaying the children's work so beautifully.

   

  We hope you all enjoyed this morning and have a fantastic day celebrating with your family and friends.

   

  Well done boys and girls the whole school is very proud of you.
