Prayer and Worship
At The Rosary we recognise the central role that prayer and worship plays in an active faith community and in all members of that community bearing witness to the Good News of the Gospels. Our parish priest, Fr Luigi, is a member of our school's governing body and plays a vital role in the sacramental and prayer life of the school.
Through prayer and worship we give glory, honour, praise and thanks to God. It is important that our children understand that there is a purpose to prayer. We pray four times throughout the school day - at the beginning of the day, before lunch, after lunch and at the end of the day. We have EYFS, KS1 and KS2 prayers and each phase has their own book of prayers to learn and say together.
Rosary Prayer
Heavenly Father
Bless all the members of our school community as we serve you this day.
In prayer help us to know you better, to serve you better and to be a sign of your love to others.
Father, help us to remember that, together in Christ,
we aspire, we believe and we achieve.
Amen.

Laudato Si
Caring for Our Common Home
Every day at The Rosary Catholic Primary School we respond to the Pope's call to care for the world which God has entrusted to us.
Children's Responses to the Pope
In Laudato Si, Pope Francis clearly states that our common home is being destroyed and that we, as humans, have dominion over the whole earth. We have to act now! There is no alternative planet. We are ignoring the Earth’s cry; we cannot continue like this. Time is running out and the solution is right in front of us: trees can help to save our planet but every day they are being mercilessly cut down. Greta Thunberg said at the United Nations Climate Summit that trees are our climate solution. Play your part. We have developed a speed of destruction that we could never have imagined. Make your voice count and stop this. We have to make our dream a reality so protect and restore nature. We spend thousands and thousands of pounds on fossil fuels rather than on developing natural resources. How can we hope for a future when we don’t know if there is one? Climate change affects us all but it is the poorest who suffer most.
