Chaplaincy Team

Each class has a nominated Chaplain who is an inspirational faith leader and supports liturgy, prayer and the spiritual life of the school.  Our Chaplains are also focused on supporting other members of their class to help lead liturgies, and to encourage their peers to put their faith into action. 

Year One 

Matylda - St Angela Class

It means a lot to be chaplain. My favourite part is lighting the candle before RE

Uchenna - St Martin de Porres Class

Being a Chaplain means helping God, our school and being good. 

Year Two

Soteria -  St Therese de Lisieux Class

I feel proud to be a chaplain because I want to serve the Lord. I like my RE lessons because it helps me to learn more about God

Leonardo - St Francis of Assisi Class

It makes me feel good because I can stand up and lead class prayers and assemblies. 

                          

Year Three 

Josephine - St Jude Class

I enjoy leading our class prayer,  3 times a day, and I enjoy presenting in assemblies in front of the school, it is fun. 

Gabriel - St Maria Class

Being a chaplain means to lead prayers and lead assemblies. When I was chosen I was nervous at first, but seeing the other chaplains then I felt a lot better. I really like being a chaplain                                    

Year Four

Jabez - St David Class

I like to perform and I like to believe in God and God will believe in me.

Frederick - St David Class

It feels amazing to be a Chaplain. It is my first responsibility in school and I've wanted to be a Chaplain since year 1. This is because I go to church every Sunday and now I can be even closer to God.

                           

             Year Five                 

 Mercy - St Catherine Class

To be a chaplain means to be an example, to help and read in assemblies and to make others aware of the Catholic faith. 

 Justin - St Rose Class

Being a chaplain means we guide those who are in need.  It also means we practice our catholic social teachings in our everyday lives such as sharing and making sure everyone has a say. 

Year Six

 Paulina - St Vincent de Paul Class

I like to help children around the school by telling them about Jesus, his story and why it is important. This allows everyone to understand the role that God plays in our lives.

 Emmanuel - St Michael the Archangle Class

It is important to be chaplain because we are spreading the word. Ephesians 4:11 says: These are the gifts God gave to the church. The prophets, teachers, ministers, evangelists and pastors
