As a Catholic community gathering in prayer is central to our daily routine.
Jesus said ‘Where two or more of you are gathered in my name, there I am also’ (Matthew 18:20).
We gather with Christ at the start of every day both as staff and pupils, at the beginning of every RE lesson and regularly throughout the year in keeping with the liturgical calendar.
We have whole school masses throughout the year also have liturgies to mark important times in the Church calendar.
We make use of a wide range of media, resources and environments including our beautiful local parish church next door as well as online liturgies.
In addition, pupil leaders plan, prepare and deliver service on a theme each half term.
