We hold an act of Collective Worship every day. Four days a week the children come together in the Hall and one day a week the children have collective worship in the classroom, led by the teacher and their classmates.
The emphasis of Collective Worship is different each day.
Monday: Values Assembly, led by the head teacher, focuses on St Michael’s core Christian Values as well as our rights, responsibilities and equality. In this assembly, we also celebrate those children who have been noted in the Rainbow Book for demonstrating our school Values. This year Year 5 and 6 class led assemblies will be on a Monday at 9am.
Tuesday: Singing Assembly, led by Mrs Buchanan, our music lead.
Wednesday: Class based collective worship
Thursday: Collective Worship led by the vicar of St Michael’s and All Angels Church, Elaine Bardwell and other clergy.
Collective Worship led by the clergy has a different theme for each half term.
Friday: Sharing or class led assemblies. Families are always invited to come to our Friday assemblies, which start at 9:00 in the Hall. In Sharing Assemblies each class brings something they have been learning that week to share with the school. Each class leads an assembly three times a year. (Dates of Class Led Collective Worship are available below.) This year Year 5 and 6 class led assemblies will be on a Monday at 9am.
At this assembly children are also presented with Head Teacher Certificates and other rewards they have earned in or outside school. We celebrate star writers and sing happy birthday to those who have a birthday in the week.
Church Worship: We attend St Michael’s and All Angel’s throughout the year, including to celebrate Harvest, Christmas, Easter and our Year 6 leavers.
