Kei te whakahihi au i a koe!!! (I'm very proud of you!!!)


Congratulations to: Mystica, Natalia, Brianna, Khaira, Sophie, Eduardo, Dhannis, John, Noah, Preston and Marco, from Room 14, for last week making their First Holy Communion and Confirmation.  The children have undertaken many Sunday afternoons, and additional study, to receive these prestigious awards.  First Holy Communion is an important ceremony for Catholics.  It marks the child’s first reception of the Sacrament of the Eucharist.  The Sacrament of Confirmation is one of the 7 Sacraments of Catholicism, and confirms one's faith.  Special thanks to Bishop Patrick Dunn for traveling up from Auckland to be part of the ceremony.
