Over St. John's Roots of Faith Ethos Group The Roots of Faith Ethos Group at Over St. John's is a group of children from Key Stage 2 who come and work together to discuss our Christian roots and promote our vision and values to make Over St. John's the best it can be. What do we do at Over St John's CE Primary School?
We recently planned and delivered our very first Collective Worship which focused on our first whole school project - Big Questions. We have come up with some Big Questions that we would like all our children to have a go at discussing and sharing their thoughts and ideas about them and what they might mean.
We were very proud of ourselves and our acheivements and look forward to collecting the responses from our classes and presenting them in our whole school book.
