Our Journey in Faith

We Worship As A School Family       

The school community gathers to pray regularly through Whole School Assemblies which take place on Monday mornings and Friday afternoons.

Each class prays at the beginning, middle and end of each day. Parents and carers are invited to join us as we come together to pray as a school family at School Masses and Prayer Services.

We are a Worshipping Community Within The Parish of St Patrick’s

We have very close links with our Parish of St Patrick’s and Father George celebrates Mass fortnightly in school.

In Year 3 children prepare to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation and First Holy Communion, the Church works closely with parents during this time to reinforce the important role of parents within God’s family during these special celebrations.

Throughout Key Stage Two, pupils are supported and encouraged to become mature and responsible global citizens of the 21st Century.  In their final year of Primary School, children prepare to become adults in the eyes of the church, by receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation. By accepting the Holy Spirit and renewing their baptismal promises, that were previous made for them, these young adults have the understanding and knowledge within them formed by the Catholic education they have experienced.

Fostering Links with Home, School & The Wider Community

As parents you are the first and most significant educators in your child’s life. By having your child baptised you have expressed your wish to have them brought up within the Catholic faith. Working closely together, forming a partnership between parents and the school, we aspire to nurture the unique qualities of each child and allow them to flourish and grow throughout their primary years.

Through our RE curriculum and Sacramental preparation we guide children on their journey of faith.  Children take part in daily collective worship and regular assemblies, many of which are child planned and led.

Chaplaincy Team

The pupils have the opportunity to serve the school and played a vital role in the spiritual life of the school.  The Chaplaincy Team perform many duties throughout the year including:

  • Writing & presenting whole school worship
  • Planning &  leading key stage collective worship
  • Assisting in the organisation of school masses and liturgies
  • To help others understand the Rosary and other forms of prayers
  • To offer help in the Parish for special times of the year

The Chaplaincy New below shows what we have been up to recently:

Welcome everybody to the latest Chaplaincy news.  As we are now nearing the end of another school year here at Ss Peter & Paul we, the Chaplaincy Team, would like to let you know what we have been up to.  During Lent we gathered the younger pupils of the school together to join us for the Stations of the Cross during Friday lunchtime. The children were very reverent during this time.
As we approached the month of May we got ready for delivering the Rosary and teaching about the Mysteries which the children found really interesting. For our final term now we are coming together to raise money for items for the pupils at Cardinal Wiseman to take to Malawi.
Any masses we have prepared during our time of being part of the Chaplaincy Team have been a great success. Thank you  everyone for your support.
May God bless you all .
