Easter Duty

FR. WILLIAM SAUNDERS

My child is preparing for first penance. The Director of Religious Education at my parish said that a person only has to go to confession when he has a mortal sin. I know children that have not gone to confession since first penance. I was taught that a person had to make an "Easter duty" of going to confession and Holy Communion. What is correct?
