Liturgy Leaders
We are honoured to introduce you to our Liturgy Leaders 🙏😇🙏
Every Wednesday our Y6 Liturgy Leaders lead Bible Group for the children in Pre- School & YR. The LL are passing on the knowledge and understanding of their own faith to the children. They are true disciples of Christ who love to teach others about their love for Jesus Christ. 🙏💜🙏
We are delighted with the new crosses in the Mary Garden! The children are absolutely thrilled with them, and use them as a focal point as we use the garden for prayer, during the season of Lent! ✝️✝️✝️
We are delighted with our new signs in the Mary Garden! ❤️This month, which is dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary, has inspired us to be really creative with the new designs. The children & staff have been using the Garden to pray the Rosary 📿 every day, and as part of our Servant Leadership, children have been keeping our Sacred Space clean, by sweeping up all the leaves! 🙏💙🙏
Today we spent our lunchtime cleaning our new Mary Garden and ensuring that Mary was sparkling ✨ clean, before we began our Pilgrims on a Journey walk; talking about how Mary is special to our family and community! 🙏💙🙏
Wow! We are delighted with our new makeover of the Mary Garden, and I know the Liturgy Leaders are. One family who after many years of being part of our OLSK family, who left in the summer, donated some money and we purchased our new Mary Statue- doesn't She look fabulous! We thank them for their kind donation. We thank Mrs Sweeney & Mrs Mitchel for donating the 'Welcome Bench' as part of their leaving gift in the summer- what a lovely place to sit. During the month of November, we are inviting parents to plant a shrub, in memory of a loved one, in the garden. Let us know if you would like to do this. Every day we can watch them grow!
Our Liturgy Leaders play a crucial role in contributing to our Catholic School Self Evaluation. Therefore, this week they have been monitoring & evaluating our Liturgy & Prayer, led by the children in each class.
They used our Action planner, to gather their information whilst observing classroom practice. They then shared their findings with each other and Mrs Finnegan, which then helped to support our School Improvement Plan.
Today they met with the children & staff to give their feedback on their findings, including sharing their ideas for improvement. They absolutely love being involved in all the monitoring and they will share their findings with the Governors at the next meeting. Staff reprted that they to, enjoyed the whole process; even though Mr H face doesn’t look like it. 😝😝
We pride ourselves on being a child led school- their voice is really important to moving our school forward and they are truly inspiring in their roles. 🙏💕🙏
Some of our inspirational Liturgy Leaders, have taken over the leadership of the Quiet Room, on Mondays and Thursdays,; giving children across KS2, the opportunity to have some quiet time during lunch, to complete mindfulness activities instead of going out onto the playground. Wow! How fabulous are our children, thinking about others, before themselves. All of the children are absolutely loving this time! Well done to our Leaders, so proud of you!
Liturgy Leaders have their wishes granted today; our Gospel Virtues have been installed on the stairs, to remind us that every step we take, we walk with Jesus! 🙏💕🙏
Following Jesus on every step!
World Mission Month: “October is when Pope Francis asks every member of the Catholic community around the world to recognise themselves as a missionary disciple, working and praying together to share the joy peace, hope and love of God with everyone, everywhere. Schools are invited to join in this worldwide celebration.
They can join on any day of the month and for however long they want. All resources for the month are available to download from the Mission Together website: https://missiontogether.org.uk/calendar/missionmonth/
They include our popular Mission Month Calendar, Five Fact Assemblies on St. Therese of Lisieux, patroness of Mission and St. John Henry Newman, England’s newest saint.
Pupils are encouraged to pray the Rosary by following our online child-led Mission Rosary and to share with the world their hope and joy in the #MyMission #OurMission Activity.”
Y6 Liturgy Leaders have started their Bible Group this afternoon, focussing on our spiritual question; What are you doing to feed your own soul; head, hands, heart, body & spirit?
Stay & Pray during Lent
Hello everyone, we are the Liturgy Leaders.
We support the Life of Prayer throughout our school. We encourage others to follow in the footsteps of our Lord; spread the Good News, read the Bible, be kind to each other, love one another, share, be a great friend to others but more importantly, listen to the word of God, at Mass.
Throughout the Year we pray the Rosary with the smaller children and read stories from the Bible. We are responsible for organising the Prayer Bags, ensuring that they are full of wonderful resources, to share at home with our families.

Our School Prayer
This is our school
Let it be a peaceful place
Let it be filled with happiness
Let it be filled with love
Love of one another
Love of mankind, love of life, and love of God
Let us remember that as many hands build a house
So every child can make our school a lovely place.
On 11th November ,
we held a special Mass for all of those who died in the War.
Thank you to all who joined us, as we remembered the fallen, with our prayers.
We also held a two minute silence around our own Poppy Field, created by Miss Marshall, with all the children. This was a wonderful way to remember all those who died as a result of conflict.
