Love is a core value of our Church school because Love is at the very heart of the Christian faith.

The bible explicitly tells us that God is love and that those who live in love, live in God and God lives in them (John 4:6). The bible also includes the instruction to love God and one another. Loving one another means putting others before ourselves whether they think that they deserve it or not – a kind of selfless love.

In school we show love by being kind and caring to each other. We also show love by making use of our gifts to care for the world and create beauty within it. Stories from the bible which are important to us are Creation, Christmas and Easter.

As part of our collective worship we help the children learn stories from the bible which show Love:
