Our Christian Values
St. Peter's provides a caring, learning environment underpinned by Christian faith, belief and values where everybody is given the opportunity to grow and fulfil their true potential, just like the Mustard Seed in the Parable of the Mustard Seed, Matthew 13:32. “Although it is the smallest of all seeds, yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”. At St. Peter’s, we are ‘Growing and Learning together’ so we can become strong and dependable, just like the Mustard Seed, Matthew 13:32.
Our Christian Values underpin everything that we do and our staff and pupils refer to them throughout the school day. During themed days, collective worship sessions, staff meetings and governor sessions, we explore and review the values and our practices.
Our Values are to: To show love and care to others, To respect other people's beliefs or cultures, To try your best, To be kind and helpful, To be honest in our relationships, To behave with patience and respect and To celebrate our achievement and hard work
Each classroom also has a Class Altar/Worship Area and 2 elected worship leaders who facilitate reflection and prayer. Worship areas are changed half termly and are linked to our Christian values:
Autumn 1 – Kind/Helpful
Autumn 2 – Patience/Respect
Spring One – Love/Care
Spring Two - Honesty
Summer 1 – Celebrate our achievements
Summer 2 – Multi Faith (Respect cultures)
