At St. John's children are taught and encouraged to pray in many different ways. They experience a rich variety of prayer throughout the school day and across the year.

To support your child’s spiritual journey, we invite you to share in their prayer life at home. This can be done by:

• Teaching and practising traditional prayers together

• Making time for prayers of thanks and praise

• Teaching prayers in your own home language

• Singing favourite hymns and carols as a family

• Talking about their RE lessons and collective worship

• Thanking God for the happy times and offering prayers during more difficult moments

Prayer Bags

Each week, a child will be chosen to take home our special prayer bag.

The packs are designed to encourage moments of prayer, reflection, and togetherness, helping children to deepen their understanding of their faith in a simple and meaningful way. We hope that by using the prayers and activities inside, families can share special quiet times together, growing in faith and love.

Please look at this website for some wonderful ideas to share with the children and family.
