God Our Father, we come to say thank you for your love today. Thank you for my family and all the friends you give to me. Guard me in the dark of night. And in the morning send your light.

Our Father
Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners now, And at the hour of our death.

A parent’s guide to prayer
Praying is an important part of our school life. We pray at the start of the school day, before meals and at the end of the day. The only way to get really good at praying is to pray. Our invitation to you as parents is to help your children to pray at home as well as school.
This easy to read booklet guides you as a parent through all the things that you need to know about praying at home with your child. If you have any further questions then do not hesitate to contact your class teacher.
