Love and Compassion

For the first part of the Summer Term, we looked at Love and Compassion in collective worship. We talked about 'costly caring' and giving or ourselves to others in a variety of ways. Our main Bible reference was:

"Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience." (Colossians 3.12).

Service

Linked to our bi-centenary, we are looking at Service to end the school year.

Peace and Hope

Our values for the Spring Term 2018 are Peace and Hope.

We have challenged the children to think of and design a symbol of 'Peace' which will accompany our new school prayer.

Friendship and Cooperation

Our main value for the second half of the autumn term, follows on from Koinonia and asks the children to consider; what a true friend is, how they can be a better friend, that if you want to have good friends you also have to be one, anti-bullying, kindness and working together as a school family.

Koinonia

We enjoyed exploring Koinonia in school recently. We thought about how:

· Everyone feels included, valued and important

· People support one another

· Everyone makes a contribution and gives of themselves

· School values have a positive impact on the local community and beyond

The YouTube video below is a lovely example of what we have been talking about in collective worship...
