We were delighted that eleven Pilgrims' boys elected to be confirmed this year. The Bishop of Basingstoke, who not only confirmed each of them, but also led six brilliantly engaging weekly sessions to prepare them, said that a Pilgrims' confirmation is one of the highlights of his year!

Those boys who opt to join the Confirmation classes during the Lent term find it offers them a valuable opportunity to explore their own personal journey of faith in a safe and comfortable setting. Boys from Year 6, 7 and 8 are welcome to sign up, if they feel it is something they are ready to. These evening sessions, which are led in a discussion-style format by Bishop David, are thoughtful, challenging and fun. And there are snacks!

Congratulations to each of these boys on what was an especially significant and joyous occasion.
