Timetable

Preparation meeting for Parents and Godparents 1st Tuesday of the month, 7.00pm in the Parish Office.

Children and their families attend the 10am Mass on the day of Baptism at Our Lady's Church, as it is customary for us to introduce the children so that the Parish can pray for their fruitful faith journey.

Baptisms are usually held on the 3rd Sunday of the Month, 11.30am Our Lady's Church

School aged children:
For school aged children, there is an additional informal session with the Children (and at least one parent). This session is generally held once a year before Advent. Keep an eye out in the bulletin and website calendar. This session is particularly relevant for anyone who wishes to take part in the First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion Sacramental program the following year.

For 2023 the session is scheduled for Monday 13 November 2023 at 6.00pm to 7.00pm in the Parish office. 

Children 10-13 years old are encouraged to participate in EDGE, an interactive and fun evening that runs Friday evenings fortnightly during school term. Please see our calendar for more information.
