Collective Worship
Our pupils take part in an act of collective worship every day and these are planned across the year to enhance and support children's spiritual and moral development, and also to support learning in their personal and social development.
Our worship usually follows this pattern:
Monday at 2.30pm - Whole school worship led by HT
Tuesday at 10.00am - Whole school worship (Hymn Practice)
Wednesday at 2.30pm - Whole school worship (Heroes of Hope and Class Assemblies)
Thursday at 9.00am - Whole school worship at St Anne’s Church – led by clergy / staff
Friday at 2.30pm - Good News Assembly led by HT
