Collective Worship

An act of Collective Worship takes place every day and is an important part of school life, making space for pupils and staff to come together and share in worship through learning, music, reflection and prayer.

Our worship is inclusive and gives all of the school community the chance to be part of the experience, while respecting the integrity of family and cultural backgrounds.

The weekly pattern of collective worship looks like this:

• Monday – Head Teacher’s worship, introducing the focus of the week
• Tuesday - Class worship linked to the week's theme
• Wednesday - Hymn practice
• Thursday - Led by a member of the church
• Friday - Celebration Assembly

Our Friend Philip of the Avon River Team and other members of the Church visit our school regularly, each Thursday we have our worship led by one of these visitors.

Teachers and the Headteacher lead Collective Worship during the week and there is a Celebration Assembly once a week to celebrate pupil’s achievements. From time to time a whole class plans and delivers collective worship to which parents are invited. We also celebrate Harvest, Remembrance, Christmas and Easter, inviting a member of the Church to support our worship.

Our School Prayer

This is our school
Let peace live here
Let the rooms be full of happiness
Let love be all around
Love of one another
Love of life, living and learning
Help us to remember, that as many hands build a house
So many hearts make a school
Amen
