When we talk about Catechism in Bendigo it’s started in 2011 at homes. From there, the classes officially began every Sunday at church after the Syro Malabar Eparchy of St Thomas the Apostle, Melbourne established on the 25th of March 2014.
Now a days there are 180 children attending catechism classes from kindergarten to year 12, as a fast-growing community we are expecting more admissions this year. We have around 22 dedicated teachers and 4 substitute teachers. Providing holy communion classes each year and conducting all other activities for example Faith Fest, Bible Fest etc as directed by our Catechism department.
