Adapted from A Prayer for the End of the School Year (Anon)
As the Year 12 students finish their education with us
We give thanks to God:
For all the teaching and learning that has taken place in our school, both in and out of the classroom.
For the talents and gifts that have been shared and the challenges that have been faced;
For the burdens that have been lifted and the hurts that have been healed;
For the respect and care that has been given.
We give thanks for the friendships that have just begun and for those that have grown.
For the faith that has been lived in our daily struggles,
For the hope that has lifted our hearts on the dark days
And for the love that has kept us going.
We give thanks for the community that we are,
and we ask you Lord —
Bless our students as they sit their exams: may your Spirit inspire
them with confidence and calmness.
We make this prayer through Christ our Lord.
Amen
