SCHOOL PRAYER
Our school prayer is said each day by our school community.
Lord help us today to make our school a place of love and care,
Where we reach out to each other with respect and kindness.
Help us to learn all that we can today and may we have the courage to do what is right.
In the spirit of Mercy,
Amen.
Our Lady of Dolours, Pray for us.
Our school song ‘To Be Our Best’ was written by Kevin Bates in collaboration with students and staff at Our Lady of Dolours Catholic Primary School in February 2002. We sing this song at our weekly assembly as a whole school.

School Song
TO BE OUR BEST
Kevin Bates SM
Many hearts from many lands
Many families here,
In many languages we sing
One song of life we share
Refrain:
Growing to be our best,
Learning every day
Like Mary carrying God’s Word
We learn and love God’s way.
Our Lady of Dolours
Has memories for us
New memories we now create
New spirit now will grow.
Respecting all our differences
We celebrate as one,
We dance and sing, we learn and pray,
Our best is just begun.
Parents, teachers, children all
Bring life and joy and care.
We build a space where all belong,
Our school’s great gifts we share.
To God we lift our hearts and minds
As Mary used to do,
Rejoicing, dancing, running free,
Our song is clear and true.
