Aileen’s Communion for one!

Kingsland National School student, Aileen Hunt, won’t forget the day she received her First Holy Communion in a hurry!

Surrounded by her proud family and with her brother Mark serving as altar boy, Aileen was the only student in her class to receive the Holy Sacrament from Fr. Larry Ebuk at St. Bridget’s Church, near Frenchpark last Saturday.

Aileen’s mother, Catherine, said it was a very special day.

“She was nervous but she was happy enough because all of her cousins and the rest of the family were able to be there to support her.

“It was unique because Aileen was the only student in her class making her Holy Communion that day but it was different and she enjoyed it,” she said.

It was a very proud day for Aileen, who received plenty of support from her father and mother, John and Catherine, brother Mark and older sister Kellie-Ann as well as her teacher, Olive Hayden.
