Confirmation Day in 6th

Ratheniska

  The sun was shining and the Holy Spirit was alive and active in all the young hearts of  the boys and girls from 6th Class who received the Sacrament of Confirmation on Saturday, March 5th. They gathered together with their families and sponsors in SS Peter and Paul’s Church in Portlaoise. Following the ceremony, which was celebrated by Bishop Denis Nulty and the priests of the parish, the pupils spent the rest of the day enjoying their time with family and friends.  They were happy to continue this celebration with their friends and the wider school community on Monday.
