Sacramental Programme

The Sacramental Programme at Christ the King

Our children make their First Reconciliation (Confession) and First Holy Communion in Year 3, and we devote significant time in school preparing our children for these beautiful Sacraments.  The Year 3 class teachers will give regular updates to parents throughout the year regards special Masses and events. 

Sacrament of Reconciliation (First Confession)

The Children will receive this Sacrament in March.

Sacrament of Holy Eucharist (Holy Communion)

The children will receive this Sacrament in June.

For more information about the Sacramental Programme in Y3,  please see the notes below from the  Y3 Parents' Meeting held on 14.11.24.
