Collective Worship Theme of the Term  Trust

Collective Worship takes place daily at the school, including a weekly visit from Reverend Westby, extended hymn singing and a celebration assembly. Every fortnight parents from different year groups are invited to enjoy our ‘show and share’ celebration assembly, where they have the opportunity to share the work of the whole school.
