On Wednesday 19^th May, despite all the forecasts for inclement weather,  the sun shone brightly on us whilst we held our open air May Service .  For the first time in over twelve months all the children were able to gather in the playground to honour Our Lady Mary.

Children were invited to bring a flower to school so that we could decorate our prayer corners.  Flowers were brought in abundance and proudly presented to Our Lady during the service.  The children were also able to bring along their own Rosaries for the celebration.

Our service began with the hymn Beautiful World, followed by prayers lead by Mrs. Millership.  Natalie from Year 6 was then invited to crown Our lady with the beautiful crown of fresh flowers.  During the singing of Immaculate Mary, representatives from each class then presented their flowers to Our Lady Mary.  Mr. Pavelin and Year 5 then lead the prayer ‘The Coronation of Our Lady in Heaven’.

A child from each class was invited to say a Bidding Prayer before Mrs. Millership closed the service and we sang the final hymn ‘As I kneel before You’
