St Francis Of Assisi Catholic Academy Trust
Trust Pupils Come Together for Sacramental Celebration
Over 170 pupils from across the nine schools within the Trust came together on 2nd July 2025 for a joyful and reverent Sacramental Gathering at St Augustine’s Catholic Church in Hoddesdon. The event was a special celebration of the children who recently received the Sacraments of First Holy Communion and Confirmation.
The Mass was celebrated by Father Julian, who warmly welcomed all the pupils and staff in attendance. It was a beautiful occasion of faith, unity, and thanksgiving, a significant moment in the spiritual journeys of so many young people from across the Trust.
With the wholehearted support and collaboration of all participating schools, the celebration became a joyful and memorable occasion for all involved. The gathering not only honoured the children's sacramental milestones but also deepened the sense of community and shared mission within the Trust family.
