Learn to Love, Love to Learn
St Giles Church
We have close links with the parish church of St Giles.
Rev. Andrew Knight, the vicar of St. Giles and St. Eata regularly visits school to lead assembly and in his role as a governor. His visits are a highlight for our children.
Rosalind Abbott, Lay Preacher from St Giles and the other members of the "Open the Book" team visit us once a month to bring a story from the Bible alive. This is the favourite assembly for many of our children.
As a school we regularly visit the church for key festivals including Easter, Harvest and Christmas and we are very grateful for the loving support that the team and parishioners at St Giles provide for our school.
