Our Chaplaincy team are elected just before Easter, each year, from Years 5 and 6. The children have to apply in writing, outlining why they would make a good chaplain and what they could bring to the role.

Our Chaplaincy team are responsible for ensuring Altars are set out correctly around the school, and assisting classes with liturgy preparation. The Chaplaincy team help to set up before Mass and ensure readings and any resources are prepared.
