In a Year 1 Catholic school, prayer and liturgy play a vital role in nurturing young children's faith and spiritual development. Daily prayers, including morning prayer, grace before meals, and end-of-day reflections, help students build a habit of talking to God with simplicity and trust. Liturgical celebrations, such as school Masses, feast days, and special assemblies, introduce them to the rhythms of the Church year, fostering a sense of belonging to the wider Catholic community.
