Boxgrove Prayer Group is run by a group of Christian parents who believe prayer can have a positive impact on school life. We come from a variety of different churches around the area. The group is open to all parents and staff and anyone else with an interest in praying for the school.
We meet roughly once a month to pray for the school. Most of the meetings take place after drop off from 8:45am finishing by 10:00am. Pre-school children are most welcome.

Below are some prayers that you might like to share with your child(ren):
Prayer for Children:
Father of all mercies
We ask that you would bless
the youngest and littlest of learners,
the most helpless and powerless of persons,
with your infinite and loving mercy,
granting them the strength to learn, concentrate,
and act in love towards
their teachers and fellow students.
We also ask that You would watch over them,
at home and at school
and give them proper direction
so that they may learn
of Your wonderful virtues
We ask this in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen
David Bennett
Prayer for Teachers:
O Lord
Grant them your strength, so they will have courage in every situation;
Grant them your love, so they never give up on anybody;
Grant them your wisdom, so they will show others the path to success;
Grant them your mercy, so they will forgive those who have hurt them;
Grant them your peace, so they will find the best in everybody;
Grant them your hope, so they will never give up;
Grant them your joy, so they will be thankful for all their blessings;
And Grant them your grace, so you will always be at their side. Amen
David Bennet
