Prayer Council
The role of St Elizabeth’s Prayer Council is:
- To help our school to be a community of faith.
- To encourage our fellow pupils to witness their faith in daily living.
- To develop good relationships within and beyond our school community.
- To support Liturgy, Collective Worship, prayer and the spiritual life of our school.
- To continue to involve pupils in fundraising for charities.
- To continue to develop strong links with our Parish community.
- To support the school in its Mission Statement.
The children will have the opportunity to:
- Read and write prayers that can be used in class and assemblies.
- Plan and prepare displays to highlight our Catholic faith.
- Discuss and pray for various topics in the news.
- Be involved with our existing charity projects.
- Make and send prayer cards to family, friends and parishioners.
- Find out about the work of different groups in the Parish
We hope to raise awareness and to give witness to our school mission statement:
Live Love Learn
‘I have come so that they may have life and have it to the full.’
John 10:10
Prayer Council 2024 – 2025
At the first meeting, the Prayer Council listened to John 10:10 ‘I have come that they may have life and have it to the full’. They thought about how they can live out their role as Prayer Councillors following Jesus’s example.

Advent 2024
During Advent, we raised funds for CAFOD. We collected 20ps in Smarties tubes and raised over £300. We were able to buy virtual gifts for example: a forest school, toilets, bees and many other gifts.
