Collective Worship
Rooted in faith, we reach for the stars
"Christ may dwell in our hearts through faith as we are rooted and grounded in love"
Ephesians 3:17
Collective Worship is a cornerstone of our community, taking place every afternoon, either as a whole school or in classes. This sacred time allows us to reflect on the day’s events, fostering spiritual growth and connection among pupils and staff. Children carry the light of their classrooms into whole school collective worship and return to their classrooms with that light, ensuring the spiritual insights gained continue to illuminate our week.
Our daily act of worship timetable:
Monday | Whole school worship led by Mrs Herrero |
Tuesday | Class Based Worship / Visitor from Holy Trinity Church / Open the Book |
Wednesday | Whole school worship led by school staff |
Thursday | Singing Worship |
Friday | Story and Song / Class Celebration Assembly / Class Based Worship |
Our weekly Big Question, co-created by our Collective Worship leads, encourages further exploration and discussion. Pupils are invited to bring their Big Question books into worship, prompting deeper reflection and engagement. As a Church of England school, our collective worship aligns with our school vision, "Rooted in Faith, we Reach for the Stars," inspired by Ephesians 3:17: "Christ may dwell in our hearts through faith, as we are rooted and grounded in love." This vision informs our aspirations to excel in all endeavours.
We cherish our school values—Community, Aspiration, Resilience, and Enjoyment—grounded in the teachings of Jesus, and promote a culture of Courageous Advocacy, inspiring pupils to champion their causes. While not all our students identify as Christian, our Inclusive, Invitational, and Inspirational approach to worship affirms respect and tolerance for all beliefs.
