Our Christian Distinctiveness
The involvement of the church in the life of the school is welcomed. Not only do we use the church to support our curriculum and in particular the teaching of Religious Studies, but through the spiritual support provided to all staff, pupils and the wider community.
Our school's foundations are strongly rooted in our Christian Ethos. Our daily act of worship promotes the spiritual growth and well being of our children through reflecting on and responding to the themes discussed. Over the years we have valued the close links we have formed with our local church. We welcome visitors from the local church community. The Vicar and other church members support us and the children get the chance to lead worship alongside them in our family church services.
Our acts of collective worship follow the church calendar celebrating the Christian festivals throughout the year. Children are encouraged to contribute to these occasions. Parents do have the right to be able to withdraw their child/children from collective worship. If you wish to do so please contact our lead for collective worship: Mrs Rayner or the office staff.
As a Church School, it is important to us all that we maintain our Christian ethos and our school prayer echoes the community spirit of the school.
Dear Lord,
Bless this school,
That working together and playing together,
We may learn to love you and to love one another.
Amen
