Chaplaincy Team Making Prayer Pots

 

The Chaplaincy Team have made prayer pots to help children lead prayer in their classes. Each class prayer pot contains lolly sticks which displays an area on which to focus prayer on.

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.
