First Holy Communion

First Holy Communion at St Matthews Catholic Primary School

Children are invited to make their First Holy Communion in Year 4. Along with Baptism this Sacrament of initiation enables us to respond to God’s word and become intimately united with him.

The Diocesan programme of study delivered at St. Matthew’s is a programme that calls us to follow the example of Jesus by giving ourselves to others in the world.

Through our Catechists, parents and teachers guidance, children learn:

Eucharist
The Lord’s Supper
The Breaking of Bread
The memorial of the Lord’s Passion and Resurrection.
Holy Communion
Holy Mass
