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 Perseverance

Jesus frequently encouraged his disciples to ‘endure patiently’ the difficulties and obstacles they encountered and to persevere in the face of adversity. He himself trusted God even when his enemies tried to stop his work and plotted his death.

Through Collective Worship we will think about

how pupils are encouraged and given skills to persevere through difficult times.

What practical resources we can draw on when we are struggling to succeed and achieve and how we can support each other in our endeavours.

How we are encouraged and motivated in our learning and how we use perseverance to achieve our best.

How hard work in all curriculum areas is worth the effort.

How we develop our skills and use our growth mindset to be the best we can be.
