IMPORTANT DATES

Enrolments for Reconciliation and First Holy Communion 

Children from Grade 4 and above are invited to present themselves for the Sacrament of Reconciliation and First Holy Communion.

Children attending St Patrick’s School, Pakenham, and St Clare’s School, Officer, will prepare for this sacrament during school time. The Sacrament of Reconciliation will be celebrated at school, with a priest attending on an assigned date to conduct the rite.

Children who attend schools outside our parish will be offered preparation classes through St Patrick’s Parish in May/June 2026. 

Further details and dates will be published in the Parish Bulletin and on the Parish Website in due course. We look forward to journeying with families as they prepare for this important step in faith.
