Worship and Prayer form a fundamental part of life at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School. As part of our Worship and Prayer life we meet daily as a school, class and community.
Wednesday
On Wednesday, two classes each week attend Mass at St Joseph’s Catholic Church with the parishioners. For those classes not attending Mass that week, they celebrate a class led liturgy.
Weekly Mass is an important part of our Worship and Prayer programme at St Joseph’s. During special times of the liturgical calendar, we come together as a school community to celebrate. These times include; Harvest, Advent, Lent, Easter and Pentecost, as well as our Holy Days of Obligation.
Daily prayer forms an important part of our school day. All classes pray at different times of the day, including; morning prayer, grace at lunch time and our end of day prayer. The Lord’s prayer, Hail Mary and Glory Be are also chosen by children at different times of the day.
All children in Key Stage 2 have a prayer journal for scribing their thoughts and feelings during their reflection time. All denominations and faiths are welcome at St Joseph’s and we invite everyone to engage in their own way and at their own level.
