Collective Worship

This week, we have been focusing on our school vision, in particular, what it means to flourish spiritually. We introduced the concept of head, heart and hands when we think about spirituality:

Head – I found out about …
Heart – It made me think … it made me feel ….
Hands – so I decided to …

Our reflection this week is to consider what it means to us, as individuals, to flourish spiritually.

We flourish spiritually through our connections: connections with ourselves, with others, with the world around us and for some, a relationship with faith.

Collective Worship

This week, our focus in collective worship has been the core value of honesty. We talked about the importance of being honest and accountable for actions. However, we also thought about filtering our words as they can either uplift or destroy. Before we speak, we have agreed that we should consider whether what we are about to say is honest, kind, necessary and timely.

Our Worship Leaders took over Thursday’s assembly and introduced this term’s focus of ‘keep learning’. Thank you very much to the students for leading such a thought provoking assembly.
