On Friday 10th February, we celebrated the Feast Day of Our Lady of Lourdes, Patron of our school.
There were two opportunities for each class to participate in for Prayer and Liturgy, which are as follows:
- Whole School Mass
- Meeting with Prayer Partners to watch/say child- led Rosary
The children (in prayer partners) visited our grotto of Mary, continuing to develop our prayer environment, both inside and outside. Prayer Partner classes joined together in procession as in Lourdes. They made a pilgrimage to the statue of Our Lady of Lourdes.
