Chaplains
Autumn Term Week 8
✨ This week our Chaplains led Key Stage worship with the theme “I Know That God Loves Me” as we continue in the 29th Week of Ordinary Time (Year C).
📖 Our key scripture was Luke 18:1–8, which reminds us to pray always and never lose heart.
🙏 Through their prayers this week, the children have been reminded that God’s love never fails, never gives up, and never runs out on us. We are encouraged to keep trusting in God’s immense love and to stay close to Him through prayer.
💫 As a school community, we give thanks for God’s unfailing love and ask for the strength to keep praying with hope and faith.

Autumn Term Week 7
🎶 This week our Chaplains led Key Stage worship with the theme “Sing to the Lord!” as we continue in the 28th Week of Ordinary Time (Year C).
📖 Our key scripture was Psalm 98(97):1,2–3b,3c–4, which calls us to “Shout to the LORD, all the Earth… sing out your praise!”
St Augustine taught that “to sing is to pray twice.” When we sing, we share our faith and express our love for God through joy, gratitude, and praise. This week we have celebrated God’s love for us by singing together and remembering that He made us so we can know and love Him too.
Today we rejoice and give thanks for God’s endless love, lifting our voices together in worship and praise!

Autumn Term Week 5
✨ This week our Chaplains led Key Stage worship to share with us about the Liturgical Year: 26th Week in Ordinary Time (Year C) and the theme: "Let Us Pray… Inspired by the Saints and Holy Angels."
📖 Our worship focused on the messages of the prophets and the important role of God’s angelic messengers. We especially reflected on Saint Michael the Archangel, a powerful symbol of God’s protection and strength.
🙏 Our prayers this week were inspired by the saints and holy angels. We gave thanks to God for:
✨ The courage of the prophets
✨ The protection of Saint Michael
✨ God’s presence in our daily lives
🌟 Today, we ask Saint Michael to help us stand up for what is right and to guide us in listening to God’s call.

Autumn Term Week 4
✨ This week our Chaplains led Key Stage worship with the theme “Inspired by the Saints” as we continue in the 25th Week of Ordinary Time (Year C).
🙏 Throughout the week, we have been praying for all people, exploring different prayer styles together. Today, we reflected on the example of the saints – people who shared their faith through their lives and service to God.
🌟 We especially focused on St Cleopas, who met Jesus on the Road to Emmaus. His story reminds us that Jesus walks alongside us in our daily lives too.
As the Catholic Church celebrates the lives of saints this week, we give thanks for their example and pray that we may also share our faith with joy.

Autumn Term Week 3
✨ This week our Chaplains led Key Stage worship to share with us about the Liturgical Year: The Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross (Year C).
📖 Our key scripture was Psalm 78:1-2, 7, which reminded us of the importance of listening to God’s word and placing our trust in Him.
🙏 Our prayers have been inspired by this Psalm – prayers of gratitude for all that God has given us. We have thanked God for:
✨ Jesus in our lives
✨ Our family and friends
✨ Our school community
🌍 Today, we especially give thanks for the gift of our world and everything in it.

Autumn Term Week 2
✨ This week our Chaplains led Key Stage worship to share the theme “Lead Us To God.”
📖 Our key scripture was Wisdom 9:13–18b, reminding us that at the beginning of a new school year we can make a fresh start and remember that God is always with us, guiding us on our journey.
🙏 In their prayers this week, the children are inviting the Holy Spirit to:
✨ Help them look back with thankfulness
✨ Be present with gratitude
✨ Look forward with hope and excitement
💫 A beautiful way to begin the new term together as a school community, trusting in God’s guidance every step of the way.

Autumn Term Week 1
This week our chaplains gathered for their very first planning meeting of the year! ✨ Together, they prayerfully reflected on the Scriptures that will guide our community: Wisdom 9:13-18b and Luke 14:25-33.
Grounded in the theme “Lead Us to God”, they began shaping a liturgy that will help us deepen our faith, grow in wisdom, and walk courageously as disciples of Christ.
Please keep our chaplaincy team in your prayers as they continue preparing to lead us in worship and reflection in the weeks ahead. 🙏
