This one we have been singing for years, or you could just say it.

 

Thank you for the world so sweet

Thank you for the food we eat

Thank you for the birds that sing

Thank you God for everything

Amen

At lunch we do the following song

 

Bless us Our Lord as we sit together (hands palm down)

Bless the food we eat today (hands palm up)

Bless the hands that make the food (hands palm down)

Bless us Our Lord (hands palm up)

Amen (raise hands upwards)

At my old school they had a dinner time prayer which was very simple:

For food and fun and friendship, we thank you Lord, Amen.

At the end of our registration time, just before we go out to play we say

'Thank you Father, for today

Please help us in our work and play.

Amen'

Posted

At the end of the day we say

 

Thank you God for another happy day at school, for the lessons we have learnt and the games we have played. Let us come back tomorrow for another happy day. Amen

Posted

Our morning prayer throughout the school is :

 

Father in Heaven I give you today,

All that I think and do and say,

Keep me in your loving care,

Teach me always how to share.

 

At the end of the day we say:

 

Good afternoon Jesus, good afternoon everyone,

And thank you for another lovely day.

We sing our prayer before lunch to the tune of I hear thunder

 

Thank you Jesus

Thank you Jesus

For our lunch

For our lunch

Help us to be grateful

Help us to be grateful

As we munch

As we munch :)

This is what we used to say when I was little and I can still remember it today!

 

 

Hands together softly so

Little eyes shut tight

Father just before we go

Hear our prayer tonight

 

We are all your children here

And this is what we pray

keep us when the dark is near

And through every day

 

Amen

Posted

I make them up!

At the end of the day we hug ourselves and say

"Lord Jesus please hold me tight

As I go home tonight."

 

I also encourage the children to make their own prayers up as well.

Heyjude :o
