A Short School Prayer for St Blasius Children



Dear God,

Thank you for our school and for all our friends and teachers. Help each of us to show love, courage and friendship every day. Give us kind hearts to help one another and be brave to try new things. May we shine your light by the way we act and speak, so everyone feels happy and safe.

Amen.


❤️ LOVE

“Love one another, as I have loved you.” – John 13:34
We show kindness, compassion and respect to all. Through acts of love, we build a community where everyone feels valued, supported and safe to learn.


🦁 COURAGE

“Be strong and courageous… for the Lord your God is with you.” – Joshua 1:9
We encourage children to be brave in their learning, resilient in challenges and confident in who they are. We celebrate perseverance, hope and the courage to do what is right.


🤝 FRIENDSHIP

“Encourage one another and build each other up.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:11
We foster strong, positive relationships built on trust, empathy and understanding. Friendship strengthens our community and reflects God’s love in action.


What do we want our children to be?

​We recognise that children at our school are not only unique and special but also that they face a variety of challenges in their lives. We want our children to be:

  • Aspirational, successful learners
  • Confident individuals
  • Responsible citizens

​​We seek to develop an awareness of the wider world and community and to broaden horizons through first-hand and practical experiences in order to enable us to become successful, tolerant and open-minded citizens who show wisdom in their actions and choices. 


​Our Intent

Religious Education lessons at St Blasius will develop their knowledge and understanding of Christianity as a living world faith to consider the impact and connection that Christianity has on Britain's cultural heritage and the lives of people worldwide. They will be encouraged to explore the big questions of life, meaning and purpose and to think theologically. Pupils will have knowledge and understanding of other major world religions, engaging thoughtfully with other faiths and traditions. They will reflect on their own religions, spiritual and/or philosophical convictions, developing a sense of themselves as unique and precious.
