“The Kingdom of Heaven is like a mustard seed planted in a field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but it becomes the largest of plants; it grows into a tree, and birds come and make nests in its branches”.

Living out our Christian Vision<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]At St Bartholomew\u2019s C of E Primary School, we are committed to living out our Christian vision, \u2018Roots to Grow and Wings to Fly\u2019<\/em><\/strong>. Our vison and virtues are central to our school life and are embedded in all that we do. Curriculum and character development go hand in hand to help children \u2018live life in all its fullness\u2019 (John 10:10). This page shares some examples.<\/p>\n

As a school, we believe that charity and partnership is an active way our children can really participate and understand being in service to others whilst developing the virtues of HOPE, ASPIRATION, TRUST, RESPECT,<\/strong> COMPASSION, COURAGE<\/strong> and FORGIVENESS.<\/strong> Each year, our children and staff work together to choose to support charities that are meaningful to our school\u2019s vision. We are extremely proud of our children\u2019s courageous advocacy.<\/p>\n
