Crusaders’ Chapel
Chapel is not just a routine; it's a dynamic and enriching experience that empowers our students in countless ways. Twice a week our students embark on a journey of learning and participation that's as diverse as it is engaging.
Our Chapel sessions offer a wide spectrum of experiences. Students may find themselves captivated by a heartfelt homily from our chaplain, inspired by the wisdom of their teachers, moved by the insights of their peers, or just having fun and enjoying singing songs of praise. They will also be treated to fun, engaging class performances throughout the year.
Participation is at the core of our Chapel ethos. Students are encouraged to take on active roles as acolytes, readers, and chapel musicians, allowing them to contribute to the vibrant tapestry of our worship. In our upper grades, they have the opportunity to shape the Chapel program through leadership teams, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility.
Beyond the daily Chapel experience, we come together for special occasions in the Christian calendar, such as Ash Wednesday, All Saints' Day, and Easter, where we partake in services of Holy Communion, strengthening our spiritual bonds as a community. Chapel is not just a place; it's a journey of discovery, growth, and celebration that enriches the lives of our students in profound and meaningful ways.
Spirit Day
Fridays at our school are a burst of spirited energy and a vivid showcase of our unity as a community. It's "Spirit Day," and it's a day we all look forward to with excitement. On these special Fridays, students, faculty, and staff come together, adorning themselves in our vibrant school colors, Kelly green and white, or donning All Saints' logo apparel.
Before we begin with all the fun, we begin with a sense of patriotic pride, reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by our heartfelt School Prayer. These moments ground us and remind us of our shared values and commitment.
Then, the real fun begins! Our Spirit Day assembly is a highlight of the week. It's a time to celebrate the achievements of our students, showcasing their talents and accomplishments. We're treated to fun performances by both students and teachers, showcasing the incredible talent that thrives within our school community.
But Spirit Day isn't just about showcasing our skills; it's also about rallying together as a team. Throughout the year we pump up the excitement with spirited pep rallies that resonate with cheers and support for our athletes. It's a chance to bolster our school spirit and cheer on our teams to victory.
Moreover, Spirit Day serves as a launchpad for special service and fundraising projects, reminding us of our responsibility to give back to our community and those in need. It's a day that embodies our school's core values of unity, celebration, and service, making Fridays a true highlight of our school week.
