'Collective worship is inclusive, inspirational, valued by all and central to school life.Worship defines the ethos of the school and challenges everyone to aspire to live out its Christian values.  Recent extensive focus on the school’s ‘High 5 values’ has united the community after an unsettled period and has had a positive impact on behaviour and relationships on all levels.'  SIAMS 2018

WORSHIP AT HOLY TRINITY

At Holy Trinity we aim for our worship to:

• be inspiring and transformational

• include a range of creative opportunities, e.g. music, silence, symbol, drama

• develop the Christian vision, values and ethos of the school.

​

We aim to use the creative arts to engage children as active participants and to involve them as much as possible in the process of planning, leading and evaluating the impact of worship.

To this end we have a team of Worship leaders.

Our worship is routed in the Bible and our Christian Values that build character and inform attitudes and behaviour consistent with the teaching of Jesus Christ. 

​

"This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

John 15.12

When planning worship in school we use a Christian collective worship resource known as 'Roots and Fruits'. Over a period of two years, we focus on 12 Christian Values which are also integrated into our whole curriculum and behaviour management policy.

Class worship

All classes are given the responsibility of leading worship to the whole school. We have had some fantastic lessons and find learning from each other really useful. The children perform their worships in the hall and on occasion in St Peter's Church. Our children are becoming more confident speakers in front of an audience and we are very proud of them. We find the children learn and retain the important messages when tasked with leading the worship.
