Celebration

Celebration is open to all young parishioners in School Years 6 or older.

Celebration

is an annual residential week held at Thornton Convent for up to 40 young Catholics from the Milton Keynes area. It was founded in 1978 by Fr. Paul Hardy and Fr. James Cassidy CRIC.

Celebration

aims to bring young Catholics together in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere to explore and deepen what they have learned about their faith at home and in school.

Celebration

does this through informal classroom discussion, art, drama and music ... and through the preparation for the daily Mass and night prayer. The programme leaves plenty of time for the participants to enjoy the special attractions of Thornton. They have full use of the extensive grounds, the tennis courts and the outdoor swimming pool.

Celebration

is led by a team of catechists and teachers drawn from local parishes, and by the chaplain, Fr. Paul Hardy
