As part of our Jubilee celebrations and renewed focus on the Eucharist, today we were delighted to welcome 50 pupils and staff into a time of prayer and reflection through Eucharistic Adoration. Before entering the Chapel, pupils took time to explore the Carlo Acutis Website in the Library, learning about Eucharistic miracles from around the world. This inspired awe and curiosity, helping pupils to understand the deep mystery and beauty of the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. Inside the chapel the atmosphere was reverent and still. Pupils listened to “Tantum Ergo Sacramentum”, a traditional hymn honouring the Blessed Sacrament, which set a tone of solemnity and wonder. This was followed by moments of silence and reflection, allowing each participant to be still in the presence of Jesus. We also incorporated Taizé chants whose simple, repetitive melodies created a truly spiritual and prayerful atmosphere, inviting all present into quiet contemplation and deeper personal prayer. This experience has been a meaningful part of the jubilee celebrations, helping pupils and staff alike to deepen their understanding of the Eucharistic and encounter Christ in a real and personal way.
