Please note that there will be no Children’s Liturgy on Sunday, 25th October , with the fortnightly schedule adjusted to accommodate the Headteacher’ s Mass on 8th November. Our next session will take place on Sunday, 1st November . The remaining dates for your diary are 15th and 29th November, and 13th December, which will be our final session of 2026. Please also note that from 29th November, Sunday Mass will begin at the new time of 9.15am. Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to welcoming the children and families at our next session.
We now have available the ‘Mass attendance cards’ which will be required by parents as a record of weekly attendance at Mass. Initially the card needs to be filled in, a photo of the child attached to the card (c/o parents /guardian) and a parish register created. Once a card has been created for each child, the family will need to present themselves to the priest for the card to be signed and stamped each weekend. Someone suggested this would be somewhat like a loyalty card for a coffee shop! Well, it is, only you won’t get a free coffee after 10 stamps, but you will get a “Certificate of Catholic Practice” provided Mass has been attended weekly for two years, prior to making application to over-subscribed schools, such as St. Andrew’s, Leatherhead. A reminder then, to parents of the changes to school admissions policies where schools, such as St. Andrew’s, Leatherhead, are over-subscribed. PLEASE SEE THE DETAIL on the parish web-site at: https://www.sjcc.org.uk/schools A certificate of Catholic practice, will now be required, such certificate can only be given where there is weekly attendance at Mass for at least two years and the ‘attendance card’ has been stamped by the priest.
