Our Prayers and Reflections
Children can write prayers for the school Prayer Tree as they wish and they are read out in Collective Worship on a rota basis.
Children write prayers covering a range of topics which may include asking for a friend or relative to recover from illness; seeking help to do the right thing or make the right decision; praying for comfort after the loss of a pet or relative; asking for God to help them and others in school.
There are reflection areas in each classroom and key questions linked to each theme ensure that Collective Worship can be shared, at a variety of levels (age and ability) in each class. It also allows links to be made between the Collective Worship themes and pupils’ learning across the school.
Children may write their own prayers of thanks in RE. The children say grace before lunch and often say a prayer at the end of the school day.
