Christ at the Heart of All We Do Jesus is calling you to be a disciple with a mission "Go, do not be afraid, and serve " . Pope Francis 2013. This role is to support the Catholic Life and Mission of the School. Pupils will be entrusted with the responsibility of: During the month of October, our chaplains will lead Rosary sessions in our outside prayer classroom.
The children are extremely passionate about their role and are looking forward to leading prayer with the other children and their parents this month. Our chaplains led a beautiful assembly on Remembrance day. The children came into the hall in silence placing poppies and prayers on our display. Children listened respectfully as the Chaplains talked about life as a solider.
We even got the chance to listen to Tommy and Janey's Great Grandfather sending a message home to his family. It was humbling listening to the assembly and reading the children's prayers. These are now displayed in the school entrance.
