Our Chaplaincy Team 2023-2024

Our Harvest Appeal

Here’s what our Chaplaincy Team from last academic year achieved!

Harvest giving

The Chaplaincy Team did a fantastic job at collecting and delivering all your harvest donations to the Hope and Padley Centre. Thank you so much for ALL your donations, we have made a huge difference to other peoples lives.

Remembrance Liturgical Prayer.

Last year, we lost two very important people in our school community. Benjamin Topley and Mrs Karan O’Connor. We reflected on their lives and the lives of others who were lost in the war at our Remembrance service. It was a beautiful way to reflect on the members of the community we have lost and remember them in our hearts forever.

The Chaplaincy were incredible and really comforted the school in our lost, thinking of all their memories and how Benjamin and Mrs Karan O’Connor impact our hearts and lives.

Our Visit to The Hope Centre

Our Charity team visited the Hope Centre and explored how the food bank donations help others. We asked lots of questions and feel very proud that have helped support our local community.

We pray for everyone we were able to help.

First Liturgical prayer of the new year!

Our lovely Chaplaincy led us in a beautiful liturgical prayer for the beginning of our school year. We led school through the story of the Epiphany, when the Magi followed the star to see Baby Jesus, and shared with him Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh.

We discussed about all the gifts that we are want to share this year.

The Live Simply Award

The Chaplaincy team made massive contributions to completing the Live Simply Award. This is an amazing opportunity for our school and we can not wait to share more things we will be doing towards living sustainability.

The Crowning of Mary Liturgy

In the month of May, we celebrate and honour Mary, remembering her commitment as the mother of Jesus. The Chaplaincy Team led us in a reflective and thoughtful liturgy, with oppotunities to sing and pray with Mary, our Mother.

Chaplaincy Training Day

It was fantastic to gather together with other schools from Derby in our school trust to train and learn how to be Chaplains. It was beautiful to end our day together in Mass and our chaplaincy team did us very proud when they shared the scripture.
