Christian Values
In accordance with the wishes of Sir Robert Geffery, the children are educated along the lines of Christian principles, and the school is described as a Church of England Voluntary Aided Foundation School.
You are here:
Sir Robert Geffery's is a Church of England Voluntary Aided primary school and as such we have a distinctly Christian ethos and vision
Children live and breathe our Christian values and know our mission statement that ‘With God’s help we can be the best we can be’. We integrate daily worship into each school day – this might be in class prayers, assemblies and songs and hymns. We find that children respond well to the values and guidance that this Christian ethos gives them and there is a nurturing, caring and family ‘feel’ to the school, about which all members of the school community are proud. Please read on to find out more.
