Caplaniaeth Mae gennym Bolisi Drws Agored yn St Brigid's. Waeth pa gam mewn bywyd yr ydym ynddo, mae angen rhyw fath o gefnogaeth ar bob un ohonom. Bydd llawer o fyfyrwyr yn defnyddio'r cyfleuster hwn i ddelio â phroblem neu geisio cymorth. Gellir disgrifio ein Caplaniaeth o dan y penawdau canlynol; Gweinidogaeth i'r myfyrwyr. Gweinidogaeth i deulu'r myfyriwr. Gweinidogaeth i bob aelod o staff. Gweinidogaeth i gyn-ddisgyblion. Gweinidogaeth trwy'r litwrgi. Trwy arwain a threfnu gweddi, myfyrdod a mathau eraill o litwrgi mae Santes Ffraid yn atgoffa'r myfyrwyr fod Duw gyda nhw trwy fywyd ac yn arbennig trwy'r flwyddyn ysgol. Mae'r Gaplaniaeth yn gweithio'n agos gyda phawb sy'n ymwneud â hyrwyddo "Nodau" Ysgol Santes Ffraid gan gysylltu'n agos ag Addysg Grefyddol ar faterion moesol yn seiliedig ar y persbectif Catholig. Yn y pen draw, mae'r Gaplaniaeth yn ceisio hyrwyddo ymwybyddiaeth o gariad Crist tuag at bob aelod o gymuned yr ysgol ac maen nhw'n gweithio gyda'i gilydd i gydnabod yr anghenion yn y gymuned a'r tu allan iddi, gan helpu ei gilydd i gyflawni geiriau Iesu Grist fel y'u hysgrifennwyd yw Sant Efengyl Mathew: "Arglwydd, pryd welson ni ti eisiau bwyd a dy fwydo di, neu syched a rhoi diod i ti? Pryd welson ni dy ddieithryn a gwneud i chi groesawu, noeth a dilladu ti? Pryd wnaethon ni ddod o hyd i ti'n sâl neu yn y carchar a mynd i dy weld ti? " A bydd y Brenin yn ateb, "Mewn gwirionedd rwy'n dweud wrthych, i'r graddau y gwnaethoch chi hyn un o lest fy mrodyr a chwiorydd, gwnaethoch hynny i mi". COLLECTIVE WORSHIP Collective worship within St. Brigid's is valued by all pupils and members of staff. Talking the time to reflect and celebrate helps children build social skills and strategies needed in future life. These services occur daily for all pupils in a variety of settings. Pupils have whole school, departmental and class assemblies. This time is used to reflect on the moral teachings of The Bible, reflect on current events of significance to the pupils and support leaners with personal, social and emotional situations. Learners also take part in group singing, celebration and awards assemblies. All pupils also attend our school chapel weekly, for prayer and reflection with our chaplaincy team. They have the opportunity to take part in rosary each day. Pupils are expected to reflect and pray each morning, lunch and end of the school day within their lessons. The Memorare Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen. Hail, Holy Queen Hail, holy Queen, mother of Mercy. Hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping, in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us; and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary. Pray for us O Holy Mother of God, That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. OUR PRAYERS Our Father Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen Hail Mary Hail Mary, Full of Grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death. Amen Glory Be Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen Morning Prayer Father in Heaven, you love me, You’re with me night and day. I want to love you always In all I do and say. I’ll try to please you, Father. Bless me through the day. Amen. Evening Prayer God our Father, I come to say Thank you for your love today. Thank you for my family, And all the friends you give to me. Guard me in the dark of night, And in the morning send your light. Amen. Fatima Prayer O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, And save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of thy mercy. Amen Guardian Angel Angel of God, my guardian dear, To whom God's love commits me here, Ever this day, be at my side, To light and guard, Rule and guide. Amen Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in this day of battle. Be our defence against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen Sister Elizabeth Kelly Roedd y Chwaer Elizabeth Kelly, CSB a adwaenir yn fwy hoffus fel "Sister Liz" yn gyn-ddisgybl, athrawes a Phennaeth Santes Ffraid. Yn dilyn ei hymddeoliad, daeth yn Gaplan Santes Ffraid. Since her passing she is still remembered by everyone at St. Brigid's. Her spirit and beliefs will always be a part of our school. Yn syml iawn, y Chwaer Liz oedd "St Brigid's" ac mae ei phersonoliaeth a'i hethos yn dal i atseinio heddiw.
