Christian Ethos
Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
At Churchill, we believe that our Christian ethos should be visible throughout school life and in the wider community. Collective worship takes place daily, where the children are invited to come together and praise God through quiet reflection, stories, prayers and songs. Pupils are not just quiet participants in worship, but also assist in the planning and delivery of them. Reflection stations are situated throughout the school and students are encouraged to reflect and pray.
We have strong connections with St Mary’s Church, and Church led worships regularly take place both in school and inside the Church. Our connections with our local community are well established and we offer a wide range of support for those in hardship. Support includes food bags and help with school uniform, amongst other things. We also, proudly, take part in local events and community celebrations.
Our chosen bible verse, represents the value that we put on children as individuals. We recognise, through an embedded Christian ethos, children will begin to recognise and celebrate God’s unique plan for each of them. Our hope is that all children to leave Churchill with a strong sense of Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural diversity which prepares them well for their journey through life.
Churchill School Prayer
This is our school.
Let peace live here.
Let the rooms be
full of contentment.
Let love be here;
Love of one another,
Love of all people,
Love of life itself
And love of God.
And may we always remember,
That as many hands
build a house,
So many hearts
make a school.
