On Saturday 6th May, boys in Second Form joined by two boys from Third Form 2 received the Sacrament of First Holy Communion. It was a very special occasion for the boys and their families. The Chief Celebrant on the day was Fr. Paddy Moran C.S.Sp. assisted by Fr. Luke Beckett O.S.B. (cousin of Harry Kelly) to whom we extend our thanks. We are also grateful to Fr. Fergus O’Connor P.P. Queen of Peace Parish, Merrion Road for facilitating us in the Church. The boys participated fully in the Mass and all the excellent preparation undertaken by Mr. Tierney assisted by Ms. Tansey was very evident.
We are also very grateful to Ms. Potts and the choir from Fourth and Fifth Form accompanied by Ms Denise Kelly for the beautiful singing which added so much to the ceremony. After the Mass, the boys and their families enjoyed a delicious reception in the Assembly Hall which had been organised by the parents in First Form under the direction of Mrs. Imogen Kenny.
Congratulations to the First Holy Communicants and sincere thanks to all who helped to ensure that the occasion was so meaningful and memorable.
