Dear Year One Parents,
As apart of our Religious Education Program we have been talking and learning about the Sacrament of Baptism. Through Baptism, those being Baptised become members of God’s family, the Church.
You might like to talk to your child about:
- - What happened on their Baptism day
- - Who their God parents are and why they were chosen
- - Who else was present at their Baptsim
- - Any photos, memories or video commemorating the event
We would love to see one or more of your child’s Baptismal photos to bring in and display in the class anytime from next week (Monday 20th). If you can make a copy of the pictures that would be fantastic but if this is not possible, you can bring in your photos in an envelope with your family name on the back and I can make a copy for our display.
If you have their Baptismal clothes or candles your child is more than welcome to bring it in to share with the class.
If your child has not been Baptised, you might like to send a photograph of your child as a baby or one taken with friends celebrating a special occasion. Please take this opportunity to reinforce to your child that they are loved by God.
Thank you again for your support.
Miss Prowse
