Today the Year 1 children were very lucky as they got to go to St Luke’s Church for their RE lesson. Father Mark talked to us about baptisms and how it is a special occasion for Catholics. We learnt about the font (holds the holy water), candle (lit from the resurrection candle to remind us of our destiny) and special oils (oil of baptism and the oil of confirmation). We even got to smell the oil of confirmation and find out how many people have been baptised at our church so far this year! Thank you again Father Mark for having us.
