BONUS MATERIAL: HARVEST

Daily Prayer for staff and students.

Here are resources to facilitate Daily Prayer in a class room, staff room, collective worship or personal prayer time.

Daily Office for Schools

Two short simple acts of Morning and Afternoon Prayer. The prayer intention poster could be enlarged and placed in a classroom to enable children to leave prayer requests if they wish (e.g. for a war torn country they’ve seen on the news, a poorly pet, a music exam etc.). It could also be used for weekly prayer intentions such as different year groups, community groups, sports teams, staff members etc.

There are also two videos to accompany these cards.

Examen for young children

A resource to compliment the Daily Office to facilitate meditation and reflection.

Daily Offices

Simple Morning Prayer Card that can be printed on double sided card for use by adults and older children.
