Helping your child prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation

The Sacrament of First Reconciliation is an important moment in your child’s faith journey. This publication is intended to complement the many weeks of teaching that is being done by teachers and priests.

It puts a copy of the learning that has been done into the hands of the children and their parents. It is a succinct summing up – it is not a ‘short course’ alternative!

This Is Our Faith, the new syllabus for Catholic religious education in Scotland, now governs the teaching of religious education in Scotland’s Catholic schools.  This is the first religious education syllabus to be originated wholly in Scotland and designed to meet the needs of young people in Scotland.

The Holy See’s granting of the Decree of Recognitio is a rare and momentous achievement and pays testimony to the great efforts of so many people who have contributed to the development of the new syllabus.
