Prayer spaces…

The importance of prayer, irrespective of one’s beliefs, is never to be underestimated. Teaching students to pray from a young age provides them with skills of self reflection and the ability to appreciate all that God has created. 

The K2.1 students of Ms Lucienne Vella, prepared crafts related to the feast of Our Lady of Sorrows and spared some time to pray for peace.

Prayer Space – insibu ħin biex nitolbu…

Illum ġie organizzat it-tieni prayer space fl-iskola dwar il-Paċi.  Bla ebda eċċezzjoni t-tfal fil-klassijiet kollha tar-raba’, il-ħames u s-sitt sena semmew is-Sirja bħala l-post li jiġi f’rashom meta nitkellmu fuq kunflitti.  

It-tfal esprimew rabja, dieqa, dispjacir u saħansitra diżappunt meta tkellmu fuq il-kunflitt tas-Sirja.  L-istudenti kellhom ċans jiktbu ħsibijiethom fuq fanal bħala simbolu tal-paċi. 

Kien hemm mument ta’ talb u riflessjoni fl-aħħar tal-prayer space għall-paċi fid-dinja.

A Prayer Space for Love…

Today the first prayer space in school was organised by Ms Borg Vella, assistant head, with Yr 4.1, Yr 4.2, Yr 5.2 and Yr 6.2.  Pupils were led to discuss what ‘breaks our hearts’ in terms of relationships with others.  The pupils were very responsive and mentioned death, bullying and other issues that hurt themselves and others.  At the end of the session pupils were asked to think of someone with a ‘broken heart’ and write his/her initials on a plaster which was then stuck on a broken heart.  A moment of silence and prayer followed.
