2023 Worship
Each term we have a Joint Schools Worship online week. During this week we all come together each day on Zoom with each school taking it in turn.
In the autumn term the theme was the story of 'Jonah' and the sessions were led by the headteachers. You can the padlet page for the week here:
Worship on Tour
We enjoy our Worship on Tour events! We create a group of 8 children, 2 from each school to meet and plan a Collective Worship session. They then tour round all 4 schools in a morning delivering the worship 4 times.
These events were now on hold due to COVID-19 but finally made a return in the summer of 2022.
