Chaplaincy Team Making Prayer Pots

St Joseph's Day Mass

St Joseph the patron saint of workers

For St Joseph's Day this year we focused on St Joseph the patron saint of workers.

As part of a Celebration of the Word session, children coloured in pictures of different people who help us in our lives and wrote a prayer on the back. These were then placed under and around our sleeping St Joseph statue. Later we put these prayers and pictures on display in the hall.

St Joseph Prayer Art

As part of St Joseph's Day celebrations, the children in Y5 & Y6 created Saint Joseph prayer art. The children produced St Joseph pictures which included the prayer to St Joseph by Pope Francis.

Start of term Mass

 

Lent prayer bags

To help us on our Lenten journey, children will be given the opportunity to take home prayer bags.

Two children in each class (Year 1 - Year 6) will bring home a purple bag containing a prayer card, cloth, candle, some small shells, stones, a piece of sandpaper and a cross. We ask that a 'prayer area' be set up and as a family pray together. Each child will have the bag overnight. Please ensure it is brought back into school the next morning so as to enable each child to have a turn.
