Walking in the Footsteps of Jesus

We aim to live our ‘Faith and Values’ through every area of our lives, and so where possible we bring our learning in Religion to a place where we can experience following in the footsteps of Jesus so we can truly hear and feel the message his life holds for us in ours.

Holy Week 2023

Children in Key Stage 2 presented the events of Holy Week through reading, reflections, music and drama in their assembly. It was a moving and reflective service beautifully performed.

Holy Week 2022

We celebrated Holy Week through a series of Assemblies commemorating Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday and Good Friday. The children took part prayerfully and respectfully, praying through drama, song, words and action.

Celebrating Holy Week 2021

We were delighted to be back together in school to celebrate Holy Week around different areas of our wonderful school grounds. Through Prayer and Liturgy we re-enacted Palm Sunday in our quiet area, The Last Supper in the hall, The Garden of Gethsemane in Forest School and The Stations of the Cross around the school field.
