Church Distinctiveness
Our Vision
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Romans 15:13
Encouraging each other, overflowing with hope: Here in our welcoming and caring school community, we recognise and value everyone, and seek to encourage each other (Hebrews 10.25) so that all know they can be overflowing with hope for the future (Romans 15:13). Like St Thomas, we ask questions, build our knowledge and learn the value of trust in our lives. We journey together as a school family, igniting curiosity, seeking wisdom, embracing challenge and showing compassion to ensure that we are all empowered to make the world a better place.
Our Values
Our values underpin all that we do here at St Thomas'. The values are:
Spirituality at St Thomas’
Our definition of spirituality is:
Spirituality is not something we can see; it is something we feel inside ourselves..it is about awe and wonder, asking questions, restoring relationships, inspiration and being aware of ourselves, others and that there is something bigger beyond ourselves. This helps us to make sense of the world around us.
Planned opportunities for spirituality
Please see the curriculum section of the website where grids have planned opportunities for spirituality throughout each unit of learning in a blue font also see the collective worship tab on this page to see how spirituality has been explored as part of worship.
