Our Liturgies and Celebrations of the Word are led and managed by a group of staff and pupils within the school. The school has a daily act of prayer for all children. These vary in group size and can be based in a class, in a small group of classes or as a whole school. All children at St Charles will lead Celebrations of the Word in their classes. They plan linking to the Church's calendar and pray in a variety of ways. Children will plan how they will GATHER together, listen to Scripture, RESPOND to the Word and GO FORTH, through giving missions.
Class masses take place every Wednesday, at St Charles Church, at 10am. Mass is led by children in the class. All parishoners and families are welcome to join the children on these days.
