Christ The King Catholic Primary School A Voluntary Academy

Preparation for the sacrament requires 7 sessions of approximately an hour each, which will take place on the following Saturday afternoons at 4pm at church:

                                       26^th March

                                         2^nd April

                                       23^rd April

                                         7^th May

                                       14^th May

                                       21^st May

                                       18^th June

As we follow the Diocesan model of Family Catechesis, one or both parents must attend the preparation sessions with their child.

The children will be expected to complete a small amount of homework, with help from their family, between the sessions.

First Holy Communion will be celebrated on Saturday 25th June 2022.

Attendance at Sunday Mass is essential.  Attendance at the Preparation Sessions alone will not guarantee reception of the sacrament. The children will each be given a ‘Mass Passport’ which will be signed by Father Neil or a catechist after each Mass attended.
