LIFE AT OLSH
Celebration of the Sacraments
The preparation for the sacraments of Reconciliation, Confirmation and First Eucharist is parish-based.
At Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Catholic Parish, there is a Sacramental Team that organises and provides input to parents who have a child /children preparing for the celebration of the above sacraments.
The Assistant Principal – Religious Education (APRE) of the school is normally a member of the sacramental team and information regarding upcoming Sacramental preparation sessions is shared in the school newsletter.
Hymns
Throughout each term, time is set aside for the whole school to come together for a short time to participate in hymn singing. The hymns and songs for upcoming celebrations form the focus of these sessions, which may be in preparation for a forthcoming liturgy/mass.
Religious Education
Throughout Religious Education lessons students focus on one of the four strands: Sacred Texts, Beliefs, Christian Life and Church.
Religious Liturgical Celebrations
Our School is a Catholic School, and we celebrate this in many ways.
Liturgical celebrations are an important part of school life. All children participate in and assist in their preparation. Celebrations may take the form of Mass, Prayer Celebrations, Prayer Assemblies, or classroom prayer.
The whole school community is invited to join these celebrations. You will be informed of these celebrations through the newsletter and class emails.
