Our school coming together to celebrate our 317th birthday. Church Schools such as ours have a great opportunity to engage with children and families from a wide range of faith communities and those who have no faith at all. It is important to us to hold onto some key theological positions held by the Christian Church.
Firstly we believe that every human being is made in the image of God, and so regardless of their faith or belief we want to offer every single child the best start in life, we want our children to start the journey well and we are drawn to Proverbs 22.6 'Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.'
