This year, the RE & Chaplaincy department has had the unusual pleaser of preparing young people to receive the sacrament of confirmation. In anticipation of the delayed sacrament. we facilitated preparation in three ways
- Class learning- providentially, S1 always learn in more depth about the sacraments of initiation at this time of year and so we augmented the class learning that would have been taking place.
- Family learning- we made the resources for home learning available to S1 families through Show My Homework
- S1 Retreats- S1 enjoyed a half day retreat which comprised of games, group tasks, drama and time for prayer and reflection. Despite the challenges of making a retreat fit the Covid restrictions, within their class bubbles, pupils had a great time, learned lots and spent time with God in prayer.
Highlights of the Confirmation Retreats can be seen in the following video:
