Prayer friends are something special that bonds children across the year groups.
As we get to know children in Reception in the autumn term, we link them with children in Year 4 who most suit their personality. The children's prayer friends have time together - then typically meet the Reception parents at the first prayer service in the autumn term.
From there, as they progress through the school, children have opportunities to spend time with each other, most notably on staggered lunchtimes on Mondays and Fridays for Years 1,2 5 and 6, where they have opportunities to play together and eat lunch together.
