Chaplaincy

Jesus said "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life" (John 14:6)

The Chaplaincy at Virgo Fidelis seeks to contribute to the development in which all members of the school community encounter God and the Church. Our work is to seek out opportunities for this in all aspects of school life. It is our aim that the expression of the Roman Catholic tradition within the school is a positive experience.

Prayer is at the heart of the life of our school. As a Roman Catholic school in the Diocese of Southwark, we celebrate together the God who has called us into being and who continues to give us life.

Mass is celebrated by the whole school in the Church and by individual classes in the school Chapel throughout the year. We also pray for the school and all its students and staff, as well as the needs of the world, every evening in the Convent Chapel.

Staff and students are able to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation before Christmas and Easter. Year 7 and 8 students are given an opportunity to spend half-a-day in retreat in the Convent Chapel. Once a week a group of Sixth Formers come together during lunch break to discuss and share faith experience.

Any student who would like to meet with the Chaplin individually to discuss prayer or talk through her faith is most welcome.
