Our Governor Prayer
Heavenly Father,
We seek your blessing and support in all the responsibilities we bear as Governors of this school.
May we reach our decisions prompted by a desire to serve.
Open our minds to the task at hand.
Open our ears to each other.
Open our hearts to your will.
Keep the children and staff and all who are part of St Gilbert’s family under your watchful eye, so that the purpose of our school may flourish for the good of all.
Amen
