Worship with St John the Baptist Church
Church Worship
Our school enjoys close links with St John the Baptist Church. Each Wednesday a member of the Church's School Worship Team comes into school and leads worship, with support from the pupil Collective Worship Team. Rev. Sarah often comes into school to visit our classes and the children particularly enjoy her Godly Play sessions. At least twice a term we attend the church to celebrate key Christian festivals.
Harvest
Unfortunately, we were unable to attend St John the Baptist Church for our Harvest Festival due to restoration work on the tower. Rev. Sarah came into school to lead our service through Godly play. We had generous donations of food which were taken to the foodbank as well as financial donations that went to Bishop Alan's Harvest Appeal.
With the church tower renovations still going on Rev. Sarah came and led our Christmas Service in school. We all really enjoyed the Godly Play story, which got us all wondering about the importance of each person that first Christmas time.
The choir did get to worship in St john's Church, having been invited to participate in the church's evening Carol Service.
