Our daily worship is intrinsically linked with our school’s Christian values and focuses heavily on how to live out those values in our daily lives.  We celebrate and consider significant events, festivals and faith days in a fully inclusive way. At St Mary’s School, collective worship is: 

• Invitational, offering everyone the opportunity to engage in the act of worship, whilst allowing the freedom for those of other faiths and none to be present with integrity. 
• Inspiring and creative, impacting the whole community and motivating them into action to be courageous advocates 
•  Inclusive, where all are welcomed, have a voice and are listened to 
• The heartbeat which breathes life into our daily lives 

Worship is highly engaging and interactive.  Pupils are actively involved in the planning and delivery of worship.  As part of our continued desire to improve, staff receive training and support to ensure high quality provision which is monitored and feedback provided as part of our improvement cycle.  Visits to a wide range of churches and visitors into school ensure our children are engaged in a wide range of worship styles.  Children attend and are actively involved in the delivery of Mass in church.

School vision: 

‘Do everything in love' 1 Corinthians 16:14

Love yourself, Love others, Love the world'

We have adopted the Windows Mirrors Doors approach which we encourage as part of our daily collective worship.
