On 19th<\/sup> April 2024 we held a Vision and Value\u2019s relaunch. We welcomed parents, governors and community members to visit school to see the children\u2019s art work that depicted our \u2018thriving community\u2019 and then to join us in a Church service to mark the event. It was a wonderful celebration.<\/p>\n

The journey to this day started long before now, with previous cohorts of children, heads of school, exec heads, governors and parents all coming together to decide on the words that would encapsulate what is driving St Mary\u2019s \u2013 what the \u2018Vision\u2019 was and what \u2018values\u2019 were at the heart of everyday life.<\/p>\n

What was decided on, is a simple yet powerful set of statements that we all agree on and are living by.<\/p>\n

The values of \u2018Love, Strength and Faith\u2019 <\/strong><\/p>\n

And our vision: \u2018Being the best we can be, in a thriving Community, following the example of Jesus\u2019. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Important words but only as impactful as people\u2019s understand of them, if they remember them and how they demonstrate them in their actions.<\/p>\n

For this reason during the week leading up to this celebration day in school we explored the theological roots of these words and phrases with the children and made sense of them through a range of media.<\/p>\n

The glorious artwork that has been created in our school hall was created over two days with artist Jo from \u2018Schools without walls\u2019 working with all our children.<\/p>\n
