From the Religious Education Coordinator (Primary)

SACRAMENTS

Students at St Aloysius College have an opportunity to prepare for the Sacraments of Reconciliation from Year 3 and Confirmation and First Holy Communion from Year 4. Students will learn about these sacraments through the Religious Education program with their teachers and will attend a one-day workshop at school. Students will then celebrate their sacraments in the Adelaide Cathedral Parish or in their own parishes. Parents are required to attend a meeting leading up to the celebration to participate in the family preparation. If you wish for your daughter to be prepared for these three important Sacraments this year, please click here to access a letter and complete the online form by Thursday 20 March, 2025. Please note your daughter must be baptised Catholic in order to celebrate these Sacraments.

Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday

Primary School students will celebrate Shrove Tuesday on the 4th March by enjoying some pancakes with their class. If you are a registered volunteer on the SAC database and would like to help cook pancakes, please email me (Ms Isabella Formichella) [email protected]. Volunteers would be required from 8:30am – 10:00am. Students are asked to donate pancake mix and toppings such as jams, honey, maple syrup, sugar or lemons to enjoy on the day.
