Values

Generosity and Kindness

We linked kindness to our anti-bullying messages and looked at 'Love Others as we Love Ourselves'. The Year 6 House Captains led worship linked to Christmas and being generous in thoughts and deeds.

Thankfulness

For Autumn 2018, we began thinking about thankfulness and having an 'Attitude of Gratitude'. This linked with our Harvest Celebrations, including a Harvest Service in school for our school community and hosting a Harvest Lunch for local senior citizens. Our Year 6 class also took part in the St. Alban's Cathedral Harvest Service.

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.
