Collective Worship at All Saints is an integral part of each day. It aims to be inspiring and inclusive and is always invitational and reflective. 

Collective worship gives pupils and school staff the opportunity to engage in an act of community, praise and thank God, be still and reflect, explore the big questions of life and respond to national events. It offers opportunities to foster respect and deepen spiritual awareness, reflect on the character of God and on the teachings of Christ, affirm
Christian values and attitudes, share each other's joys and challenges and celebrate special times in the Christian calendar.

Here is an example of a typical week's Collective Worship at All Saints.

Monday: Head of School 'Looks Out' at the world and beauty around us.  

Tuesday: Teacher led Collective Worship 'looking In' 

Wednesday: The Open the Book team (who act out a Bible story, often with school volunteers), or a visiting leader (local Clergy)

Thursday: Values based Collective Worship where we look into the Christian Values with a reflective lens. 

Friday: Celebration Worship where child can be awarded with badges for displaying our Christian Values and being a shepherd to our school community.

Every half term, Friday also celebrates certain children in school who go above and beyond in living out our Christian Values and consistently demonstrate our school vision of ‘Guiding Our Flock to Flourish’ through their words, actions, and attitudes. These awards are chosen by our Worship Group pupils, showcasing the pride our children have in their peers and their ability to recognise and celebrate Christian values in action.

Children are involved in collective worship in many ways, from setting up, planning worship, taking a role in a Biblical story, to ending by sharing a prayer or blessing. We also have a 'Collective Worship Reflections' book and the children and staff take turns to reflect on each Collective Worship, using key questions to guide their thoughts.
