  • ✨ Child-Led Liturgy – Jesus’ Heart for Peace ✨

    Published 21/11/25

    Today, our child-led liturgy focused on Jesus’ heart for peace. The children reflected beautifully on what peace means and how we can share it with others.

    Each child wrote their own idea of how they can bring peace into the world today on a special dove. These doves are now displayed in school as a reminder of the small but powerful ways we can make a difference.

    We are very proud of their thoughtful contributions and the calm, reflective atmosphere they created. 🕊️💛
