Best wishes to our First Holy Communion candidates 2026

8th May 2026

Today brought to a close months of preparation for our First Holy Communion Day 2026. Our 16 candidates are ready, excited & nervous today & we know they will be super tomorrow. A huge thanks to their class teacher Ms Ryan & to Mrs Healy for all their work in preparing the children for this important occasion in their young lives. We are also grateful for the time and kindness shown to our pupils by Fr Enda as he has helped them along this journey, reassuring them every step of the way.
Each pupil received a First Holy Communion pin from Mrs Tierney and a Communion goodie bag from the Parent’s Association. 

We hope for a little sunshine tomorrow but whatever the weather these 16 boys & girls are truly a special bunch and we are so proud of them all.
Best wishes to Anna, Christopher, Conor, Ella, Ethan, Iarla, Isabelle, Jack, James, Jamie, Joni, Lucy, Mark, Millie, Patrick and Róisín.
