Our School Values
At Christ Church, our values guide everything we do - how we learn, how we treat one another, and how we grow in love, learning, wonder, and faith. Each half term, we focus on one value, exploring its meaning through collective worship, classroom reflection, stories, and everyday acts of kindness.
Together, these values help us to Believe in ourselves and in God’s love, Grow in character and knowledge, and Seek to make a positive difference in the world.
| Term | Value | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Autumn 1 | Friendship | Building strong, caring relationships in our classrooms and playgrounds. |
| Autumn 2 | Peace | Finding calm within ourselves and helping others to feel safe and valued. |
| Spring 1 | Hope | Believing in brighter days and trusting in God’s plan for us. |
| Spring 2 | Forgiveness | Learning to say sorry, to forgive, and to begin again. |
| Summer 1 | Courage | Having the strength to do what is right, even when it’s hard. |
| Summer 2 | Thankfulness | Recognising the blessings in our lives and showing gratitude every day. |
