# Celebration of the Word

**New 'Stay Play &amp; Pray' content coming soon!**

At St. John Bosco's our Catholic faith is central to the day-to-day life of our school and to all aspects of our curriculum which regularly features Mass and Collective Worship in all its forms. We place great importance upon living out the gospel values at all times as well as RE lessons, attending the celebration of Mass, acts of worship and assemblies. Our Catholic faith can be witnesses all around from the way we care and treat each other, songs and hymns we sing to focal points and displays around school celebrating our faith.

At the heart of our faith is the love of God and each other. Our children understand the taking part in collective worship on a daily basis brings them closer to God and strengthens their own faith and understanding of the gospel values.

We have very good links with the Parish of Sacred Heart and St John Bosco where the children enjoy taking part in visits alongside Parish Priest, Fr. David as well as receiving the Sacrament of Holy Communion and taking part in nativities. Fr. David is a regular visitor school and celebrates mass in school.
