Term 3 Our Collective Worship theme is ‘Thankfylness’

and our Jigsaw theme is ‘Dreams and Goals’

‘For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

And the King will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”

Matthew 25: 35-40.  

Our vision is

‘To nurture, educate and inspire’

and

‘To love our neighbour as ourselves so that we will come to life in all its fullness’.

Our six core values are:

• friendship
• honesty
• respect
• responsibility
• perseverance
• creativity

These values are part of this vision and support the children in understanding what it means to lead a life that follows the core Christian values.

Worship at Hanborough Manor

In our school we want to be able to offer our children the best experience of collective worship we can. We value daily opportunities to come together to:

• Nurture and nourish
• Educate and enlighten
• Inspire and enthuse
• Celebrate and appreciate
• Contemplate and wonder
• Be thankful and pray

Above all collective worship should involve and empower the children – so they can become the best versions of themselves.

Collective worship should promote each child's individual spirituality which we understand as an inner sense of relationship to a higher power that is loving and guiding. The word we give to this higher power might be God, nature, spirit, the universe, the creator, or other words that represent a divine presence. ... A child's spirituality precedes and transcends language, culture, and religion.

Collective Worship is led by our Year 5 liturgy group and either the headteacher, the deputy head or a staff member, and a visiting member of the local Christian clergy each week.
