Collective Worship at St George's

Collective Worship is a central part of life at our school and all children and staff engage fully with it. It is always distinctively Christian, reflecting our vision and allowing us to explore our Christian values and consider ways we can put them into action in our daily lives. We use Windows, Mirrors and Doors to ensure our exploration includes Looking out, Looking in and Looking ahead. We hope that our worship helps us to learn something new, to reflect on our own feelings and behaviours and to think about how we might behave or do things differently in the future. Worship also gives us a chance to feel closer to God and to be able to talk to him through prayer and song.

Our value this half term is Hope

This half term we will be exploring the value HOPE. Christians see their hope in God’s promise ‘that love and goodness have, and will ultimately, overcome all evil’. This hope is manifested in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Through Collective Worship, we will be thinking about how, as a school:

We promote a vision of a hopeful future.

We help children to understand that there is a chance of a new beginning and a fresh start in every situation.

We help children to understand how they can play their part in a more sustainable environment and a better society.

We help children to understand how they are citizens of the world and that this citizenship brings challenges and responsibilities.
