ACTS OF WORSHIP
As disciples we are called to follow God’s mission on Earth. To help us further understand God’s mission for us, we hear his word through scripture, each week, by taking part in part in a range of Acts of Worships

MASS
We have regular opportunities to attend mass within our local community either at Our Lady and St Patrick’s Parish church with Fr Wilfred or at the Becket School in their chapel with our friends and colleagues.
Mass at our Parish Church is on a Wednesday morning at 9:30 with the Parish community
In addition we celebrate Mass as a school community in the school hall or in church once a half term. These masses are planned, prepared and delivered by pupils in different classes. Each has an inspirational theme that encourages to reflect upon our mission as disciples on Earth
PAIRED CELEBRATION OF THE WORD
Each week classes lead paired Acts of Worships on our ‘Word of the Week’. These Acts of worship are, as with the masses, prepared, planned and delivered by the children.
Scripture, Actions and Mission are chosen by members of the class which are then shared with others.
Each class will share a very special celebration of the word book with their neighbouring class, where they hold all their responses to scriptures and evaluations. If you would like to see these please ask your child’s class teacher.
KEY STAGE CELEBRATION OF WORD
Every Thursday we are led by our KS1 and KS2 chaplaincy teams in a key stage Act of Worship. As with all other acts of worship the children are responsible for preparing these. It is always a wonderful celebration of our mission to serve and love others as disciples of the Lord.
The sharing of scripture is vital to our work as Missionary Disciples.
As part of our celebrations for ‘The God Who Speaks – The Year of the Word’ and as we continue to go out and spread God’s message, each class has chosen a special piece of scripture important to them, that will guide them over the course of the year.
Their responses to the scripture are displayed in our hall to show how God speaks to us through scripture.
DISCIPLESHIP DIAMONDS
At St Patrick’s we are able to earn ‘discipleship diamonds’ when we live out our school values and mission statement. Every class has its own jar to fill, we work together as a class to earn a reward and live out our faith for all to see.
