The Christian Value we are particularly focusing on this half term is Respect.

As Moses approached the presence of God in the burning bush, God said to him: “Do not come any closer. Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”

This scene captures something of the essence of reverence and respect.

Respect for God extends to respect for all creation, including all people, animals and our environment. In our school children and adults show respect for each other, their belongings and their environment.

“Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity and sound speech”

– Titus 2:7

It would be wonderful to see a large proportion of the children taking part in the home-school challenge. You can explore this value at home using the resource on the right.
