Catholic Children's Society

Advent Carol Service

Thank you to our wonderful prayer leaders who represented our school so beautifully at this years Catholic Children's Society Advent Carol Service at Westminster Cathedral. Bishop John Sherrington led the service and the children enjoyed the carols and listening to the Christmas Story supported by real life animals. Thank you to all the staff and parents who supported the trip so the children could attend.

Prayer Leaders

The Prayer Leaders have done an amazing job of promoting, organising and collecting food for our harvest collection,

which will be donated, to Brent Food Bank.

Many thanks for all of your generous donations.

The role of a Prayer Leader is:

  • To be a role model for others.
  • To help others understand that prayer is important, connects us to God and can bring both comfort and joy.
  • To serve the school and the community;
  • To support Mrs Whelan and other adults in organising whole school events;
  • To work together as a team to carry out tasks.

 

Typical Prayer Leader tasks include:

  • Changing the liturgical cloth on class altars;
  • Set up for Mass or assemblies;
  • Prepare and support Mass;
  • Writing or leading prayers for Masses, collective worship and assemblies;
  • Represent the school at events in the borough or Deanery.
