Respect

Friendship

A friend loves at all times.

Proverbs 17:17

Forgiveness

Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

Collective Worship

Collective worship is a whole school gathering to explore and reflect on Christian values and stories. 

At Lapworth, we have an act of worship or assembly every day, which take place in either the hall or the classroom. For special events on the Christian calendar, such as Christmas and Easter, we visit our local church, St Mary's Lapworth to lead services. The whole school attends and parents are invited to take part in our collective worship too. 

Each half term, we focus on a different Christian value and explore these in different ways. During our worship we reflect on the teaching's of Jesus through exploring stories from the Bible.

Reflection

A time to stop and think. A time to ask big questions and seek answers. A time to develop a sense of wonder about the universe.

A time to just be. 

Children at Lapworth are encouraged to explore and develop their own spirituality through music, singing, PSHE, Family Time, supporting charities and experience special awe and wonder moments. 

Each class has a reflection area with bibles, thought provoking activities and objects that help the children to focus their thoughts. 

The school's reflective garden has had a makeover. On Wednesday 11th May 2022, we held a special assembly with Father Patrick to remember our bus driver, Dorin, who sadly passed away in 2021. Dorin's family and colleagues also joined us.

The reflective garden will be a place where a child can choose to sit quietly at play time, on their own or with a friend, to have space away from the hustle and bustle of a busy school day.
