Social, Moral, Cultural and Spiritual Education
SMSC is embedded in the ethos and curriculum of our school. We aim to give our children opportunities to explore and develop their own values and beliefs, raise their spiritual awareness, have high expectations of personal behaviour and a positive attitude towards others. We also expect children to have an understanding of their own traditions and an appreciation for the diversity and richness of other cultures as well as a respect for their religion and other faiths.
Easter visit to Newlands Care home
Just before we broke up for Easter, a group of Year 5 children visited Newland’s Care home. The care home is local to us and has many residents that lived in the community. The children took a selection of Easter pictures and cards made by children from Nursery to Year 6. The children chatted to the residents and wished them a Happy Easter. We will return in the summer term to spend more time with the residents and find out more about them.
