Mrs Mitchell has led the children and staff in a special collective worship this morning remembering HM Queen Elizabeth II and the important part she has played in our world.
Using our Christian Ethos Values of Love, Courage and Friendship Mrs Mitchell explained that some people may be sad today and some may be happy because they have happy memories of the Queen and how she was such a lovely lady. Mrs Mitchell also asked the children to care for each other, especially today and to show love, courage and friendship towards each other.
Mrs Mitchell also explained the important role King Charles III now has, of bringing everyone together, whilst also feeling sad after losing his Mother. King Charles III will be showing resilience and focus in abundance; two of our learning behaviours, whilst also displaying the same Christian Ethos Values we follow.
The children and staff observed a one-minute silence in respect of, and to remember, HM Queen Elizabeth II, which was followed by a prayer.
Mrs Mitchell was then delighted to be able to share the Golden Acorn Awards of the week, given to those children who have shown, this week, those same Christian Ethos Values as her Majesty:
