First Communion: Parents of children in 2nd Class have volunteered to share some time and faith experiences with the First Communion children. This programme is known as Faith Friends. It is for children in preparation for their First Communion and it is run by the Parishes. The Holy Redeemer program is situated in the Little Flower Hall and the children from Queen Of Peace parish attend their sessions in Villa Pacis. The meetings take place between 1:00 and 2:00 p.m. on the last three Saturdays in March. A Prayer Team from Holy Redeemer will come into the school in April and pray with the boys using simple guided meditation techniques
