Confirmation Meeting

On Thursday evening, Y6 gathered together for their commitment service. They were joined by their families and sponsors to support them during the preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation. 

Confirmation Saint Work

 

In our RE lesson today, we explored the backgrounds of our chosen saints. We talked about patronages and the symbols we could associate with those patronages. 

In preparation for our Confirmation meeting next week, we created a design for our glass candle holders. We carefully planned every element of our design, in order to create a beautiful art montage in honour of our chosen saint. 

We used acrylic pens to bring our planned design to life.  

Cafod Family Fast 

 

Today, the members of our Cafod Club led us in a class assembly about Family Fast Day. We watched and learned about people around the world who need more support to access clean, safe water. We made a pledge about what we would be giving up to support Family Fast Day.

Confirmation Retreat Day

 

Our Y6 children took part in a Confirmation Retreat today. They started the day by attending the Service of the Word amongst the parish. They then went on to discuss the Gifts and the Fruits of the Holy Spirit, reflecting particularly on the gifts they felt they needed most in their lives after examining their conscience and their actions. 

They paused at midday to be led in the Angelus by our Liturgy Leads before discussing the parts of the service and the symbols associated with the Sacrament of Confirmation.

They ended their retreat day by attending Benediction at church with Deacon Tim.

Saint Thomas Aquinas

We have researched our new class saint, Saint Thomas Aquinas, and found out lots of information about his early life, works and his patronages. We hope that he will watch over us during the course of this year and help us on this very important part of our faith journey.

Welcome to Year 6's Catholic Life page!

We look forward to sharing our faith journey with you this year 

Luke 8:15 - ‘But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.’  Y6 have gathered together to share scripture from Luke and discuss how they can be seeds in good soil and turn over a new leaf this year.
