Our Special Character

"The School is a Roman Catholic School in which the whole school community, through the general school programme and in its religious instruction and observances exercises the right to live and teach the values of Jesus Christ. These values are as expressed in the Scriptures, and in the practices, worship and doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church as determined from time to time by the Roman Catholic Bishop of the Diocese."

Lord Jesus, we thank you at the beginning of this day for the gift of life.

Help us to use our gifts this day to help others and to make life enjoyable for all of us.

Bless each of us in our class community and help us to become the best people we can be.

Amene.

Afternoon Prayer

At the end of the day we come to you Lord to say thank you.

For the good we have done today, thank you.
