Confirmation

Children's Confirmation

Confirmation is the next sacrament of initiation after Children's baptism. In the diocese of Broken Bay, this sacrament is generally celebrated when the child is in year 2 at school. The celebration for Naremburn and Northbridge parish communities is normally held in September in St Leonard's Church, Naremburn. The celebration for the Willoughby community is normally held in September in St Thomas' Church.

An information pack is prepared  in June each year. It includes a letter outlining the process and key dates, an enrolment form for the sacrament, and a parishoner information form for family details and contact information.

The pack is distributed to all Year 2 students at St Philip Neri School Northbridge and St Thomas' School Willoughby and those attending catechist classes at Castle Cove, Northbridge and Willoughby Public Schools. Information packs are also available from June onward at the parish office, at the rear of the churches and by download from this website (see documents dowlnloads in the right-hand column).
