The Chaplaincy Team meet every week to share ideas and prepare opportunities to enhance the prayer and spiritual life of the school. They listen and respond to the voices of their peers, discuss and develop ideas collaboratively, and launch whole school initiatives. They work together to plan and deliver a weekly prayer club and celebrations of the word across the whole school.  The older chaplains support the younger children and provide prayer opportunities for the Reception and Year 1 classes.

The Chaplaincy Team Aims to:

• Help the school to grow as a community of faith
• Actively participate to significantly enhance the Catholic life and mission of the school
• Encourage the pupils to live their faith in daily living
• Support liturgy, prayer and the spiritual life of the school
• Support the school and pupils to live out the School Mission Statement
• Promote and involve pupils in fundraising for local, national and global charities
• Take a leading role in responding to the demands of Catholic Social Teaching Principles

Chaplaincy Team 2025-2026

 

Chaplaincy Team 2024 - 2025 

 We have some fantastic parent volunteers on our Chaplaincy Team who support us throughout the year.  

 

Planning a prayer time for classes using the 5 Finger prayer 

     

The Notre Dame Chaplaincy Team came into school to work with our chaplains and to share their faith and good example across school. 

 

     

The team is always bristling with great ideas! We started a Saint of the Month display to learn from the example of the Saints. We had lunchtime prayer group, led assemblies, led prayer times in class, raised money for charity, went to the Trust Mass at the Cathedral and so much more throughout the year.

 

The Chaplaincy Team joined the Diocesan School's Pilgrimage to Padley in July 2025.
