Worship in school is closely linked to the worship calendar of the Chruch so that all Christian festivals are studied and celebrated. Worship also reflects on other aspects of human faith, personal endeavour and other votable achievements.

We hold informative meetings for parents on various subjects throughout the school year. These in the past have included Mathematics, Learning to read, SATs, Drugs education etc. Each class teacher will send a ‘Big Picture’ home at the start of each term to inform you of what your child will be learning.
