Prayer and Liturgy
At St Rose's, prayer and liturgy are integral parts of our daily routine, helping to foster a sense of community, reflection, and spiritual growth. Each class begin each day with a prayer, pray before lunch and end our school day with a prayer.
How Prayer and Liturgy is timetabled at St Rose's:
Monday - Gospel Assembly
The school gathers together for our weekly Gospel Assembly, reflecting on the weekly Sunday gospel reading.
Tuesday - Celebration of the Word
This takes part in each class and is led by the class teacher. The children gather together, listen to the Bible, respond to what they have heard and then think what can they do to live out God's message. Each class has a prayer table, Bible, candle, crucifix and liturgical cloth.
Wednesday - Hymn Practice
Worship by engaging the heart and soul in prayer.
Friday - Celebration Assembly
The school gathers together to celebrate the achievements made by our pupils.
We also come together throughout the year to celebrate key events:
Welcome Mass
Harvest
Month of the Holy Rosary
Remembrance
Advent
Epiphany
Lent
Easter
Month of Mary

Our Father
Our Father,
Who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name;
Thy Kingdom come;
Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace,
