Collective Worship
Worship forms an important part of our school day at Millbrook Park.
Worship can take these three forms:
- praise (singing)
- prayer (quiet time in reflection)
- thought (a talk based on a current theme)
We start our week with a collective singing assembly with all year groups, which is a genuinely joyous occasion to begin our week.
On a Tuesday we have alternate Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 assemblies from Reverend Jo, where she links in biblical stories and reflections with the values that link to those we celebrate at MBPS - the other Key Stage uses iSingPop’s Classroom Worship Assemblies.
On a Wednesday we use the Christian version of Picture News in our classrooms, to enable the children to think about the wider issues in the world.
Thursday is our Global assembly, where we discuss global issues around our values and vision, with links to bible passages and how the children can get involved.
On a Friday we run our Star Award assembly, where one child from each class is selected for having demonstrated one of our MBPS values. They are celebrated on the day and then the following week they join the Headteacher or Deputy Headteacher for juice and biscuits.
Aside from our daily acts of worship we also have half termly services at St Paul's Church led by the Church; the ministers of St Paul's Church, Rev Jo James and Rebecca Townley lead weekly whole school service at the school. Rev Jo James also leads specific services in church, such as the Harvest festival, the annual Christmas carol service and our Year 6 leavers' service.
