Christian Distinctiveness

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.”

Proverbs 22:6

Christian Distinctiveness

We are a Church School and this informs our entire ethos. We have fantastic links with St Peter’s Church and other churches in the area and increasing links on a national and international scale. We celebrate all the major festivals in Church, including Christmas with our lovely Nativity, Harvest Festival, and Easter.

Collective worship is held by Father Jeremy, the Open the Book team and we are supported by Jordan Lambert who is our local Christian schools worker who dedicates his efforts to supporting the growth and well-being of children in Staffordshire.
