Prayer & Liturgy at St Gregory's
Prayer, worship and liturgical celebration are central to our Catholic tradition and form an integral part of the school day.
Our school prayer
This is our school and we are a family.
Let us promise together that our school shall be a place where we love one another as brothers and sisters
Let us promise together that this will be a happy, safe place, where we can learn to respect each other and learn about the world around us.
Amen.
Acts of worship
Prayer is encouraged in a variety of methods; – private individual prayer, group prayer, and whole school prayer.
Each child takes part in a daily act of worship (5-10 minutes) and formal prayers are used to open and close the school day sessions. The children also plan and lead acts of worship within each of their classes. Collective Worship across every class uses the same structure. We gather, using prayers or actions or music. Then, we listen to scripture, readings and / or poems. After that, we respond by doing something or saying a prayer together. Finally, we go forth by reflecting on the scripture and taking this forward into our work throughout the day.
You can find some of our prayers in the Documents section at the bottom of this page.
