Prayer Enrichment
A Catholic education should offer the opportunity to encounter God and experience a wide variety of both creative and contemplative prayer traditions. Creative prayer activities are interspersed through the year to connect us with charity campaigns, current affairs, or Papal initiatives and Jubilees.
Spring Term features our prayer carousel, where form tutors prepare a session attached to a Lenten, Rock or CST theme. They draw on their own passions or subject specialty to create a unique experience and “tour” around their year group’s tutor times each Friday. Simultaneously, the Sixth Form undertake the Ascension Press “Connected” course, developing a more mature understanding of Catholic Social Teaching.
Tutor groups are scheduled into the Chapel through the year to experience different ways of praying, with all culminating in an experience of Eucharistic Adoration:
