Children begin each Monday and Thursday with a whole school Collective Worship – our rainbow learning qualities provide the focus for discussion. Each class also has the opportunity to plan and lead worship for the rest of the school on a termly basis . Children also participate in class based liturgies. A Special Mention assembly takes place each Friday, where children receive individual recognition as well as class awards. This information is recorded on our school website.
Our lovely friends from Open the Book join our assembly on alternate Thursdays to share a bible story.
Children work together with staff to lead Masses in St Patrick’s Church (dates can be found on the diary). We welcome parents, carers and family members to join us in this celebration.
