We are a church school

Religious Education is an expression of our vision, as children consider, reflect, question and explore Christianity and other world religions.  We aim to give children a ‘full’ education enriched by visitors in and visits out to enhance their experiences.

Year 5/6 went to Wellingborough to visit a Mosque. They learnt about the five pillars of Islam and were shown some traditional Mosques from around the world. We are very fortunate to have had this fantastic opportunity to experience other world religions.

R/1/2 had a very special visit from Jo Elijah  to help bring to life their current R.E unit on Judaism. The children learnt about Jewish traditions and took part in their own Shabbat celebration. They loved the challah bread and even learnt a few Jewish words!

 

 

 

Our Community Links:

We really value strong community links.  Throughout the year we take part in community initiatives such as: planting daffodil bulbs at the recreation ground, displaying poppies around the village to mark Remembrance, picking litter and taking part in a litter awareness campaign and decorating the pavillion to mark the King's Coronation.  

During December, we visited a local care home to sing traditional carols. 

Termly, we host ' An Afternoon of Friendship'  in the village hall, where elderly residents are invited to join us for food and refreshements.   The children have learned so much from our neighbours - many of whom went to Loddington School as youngsters and have great stories and memories to share.

Our most recent event was hosting Cafe St. Leonard's in collaboration with our local church on April 20th 2024.  We served over 70 bacon butties, along with cake, fresh fruit and bagels.  The community really embraced and supported us, with such positive comments - even requesting that we make it a monthly event!

Our  November 16th event  2023 - was homemade sausage rolls and a social chat. Invites were prepared and posted by the children.
