Worship
Prayer & Liturgy is an important aspect of Religious Education. Each day the children take part in prayer & liturgy, whether it is in small groups in class, in year groups, or as a whole school. It is an ideal opportunity to celebrate. Celebrations are an essential part of life for people of every age and faith. Prayer and liturgy consist of varying elements such as gathering and greeting, listening, reflecting, responding through community praise, especially in song, prayer and of course the children’s own work and ideas and go forth.
At St Ignatius' Catholic Primary we have whole school mass to celebrate the new academic year, as well as termly masses throughout the year (Advent, Lent & Leavers) and other mass such as some feast days. We also join with our other school's in the MECMAT Trust annually for our feast day in June and services or masses throughout the year with our Christ the Kind cluster eg Lenten service, relic visits, Ladyewell pilgrimages.
Catholic Life
St Ignatius' Catholic Primary School is a community of love and hope. It provides our children with a Catholic education, which perceives life as a faith journey. Our school is rich in opportunities for children to grow in their own faith journey and we also provide understanding and knowledge in other faiths. We ensure our children are fully prepared for life after primary school and ensure we give them to skills to develop further and strive for their hopes and dreams. The contact and updates we receive from our feeder high schools shows our children are very happy and are confident young people.
