RELIGIOUS EDUCATION with 1S
1S have been learning about the sacrament of Baptism and the key symbols and actions used in the Rite of Baptism.
We have learnt that someone that is being baptised will be blessed by the priest by anointing the child or person with holy water from the baptismal font, making the sign of the cross on their head and chest with oil called chrism and lighting their baptism candle from the Paschal candle to remind us about Jesus.
