Church Schools and School Values
Celebrating 'life in all its fullness' John 10:10
School Values
Hope, Community, Dignity, Wisdom, Joy and Peace
Community, Compassion, Courage, Forgiveness, Friendship, Respect
Thankfulness, Trust, Perseverance, Justice, Service, Truthfulness
Rooted in Bible teachings, our Christian values guide and teach our whole school community how we can show these values in our everyday lives.
We express our Christian values in all we think, do, and say, whilst always respecting people of other faiths or none.
Each term we focus on one value and make links with the seasons of the church. We use Roots & Fruits and Roots and Fruits 2 which supports our 'whole school' worship, and we celebrate every week with a Christian value award.
Our School Value this term is Joy
