Our church community enriches our school in so many ways - including leading school worship, our amazing reading volunteers who help nurture our little bookworms and lead our church based workshops. Our wonderful community partners lead engaging workshops that help to bring learning alive make learning (e.g. RE topics, local history) absolutely fascinating for our children.

This special connection helps our children to develop both spiritually and academically while also fostering a sense of belonging within our wider community.

Collective Worship 

Collective worship in our school takes place every day. Across the week, children take part in whole-school, key stage, and class-based worship. Our worship is proudly pupil-led, with adults providing guidance and support where needed.

Each term, our worship is shaped by one of our core values:

• Autumn Term – Kindness

• Spring Term – Respect

• Summer Term – Friendship

We are so lucky to have our  brilliant Christian Youth Worker, who leads engaging and inspiring worship assemblies throughout the year – often joined by her wonderful puppets, which the children absolutely love!
