Well done to our Second Class who on Saturday last made their First Holy Communion in St. James’ Church Charlestown. It was a lovely afternoon. The church looked amazing. For this we must say a special word of thanks to Mrs McCafferty and her son Joseph who as always put so much work into our sacramental preparation.

The children added so much to the ceremony with their beautiful reading, singing, responses and movements throughout the mass. Mrs Reilly can be so proud of each of you. We really hope you had a lovely afternoon and weekend after all your hard work.

A special word of thanks also to the parents of our Second Class students who presented Mrs.Reilly and Mrs.McCafferty with beautiful flowers as a token of their appreciation for all their hard work. It was a lovely gesture.

Thank you to Elaine Madden for her beautiful singing and music throughout the ceremony, again as with the children it added so much to our day.

Finally we could not forget Fr.Doherty and Fr.Johnston who played such a special role in the children’s Communion day. They both have worked so hard helping the children prepare for this day. We are as always so appreciative of their support.
