How does our vision relate to our everyday lives?

Our Choir sing for the villagers of Long Sutton and South Warnborough and surrounding areas at various events across the year including the very popular Tea at 3 in the local village hall at surrounding village fetes and other annual events such as the tree lighting ceremony at Christmas. Jesus showed love by caring for everyone. By giving our time and talents to bring joy to others, we are following his example of loving our neighbour.

The Choir also had the incredible opportunity to sing at the Anvil in Basingstoke and shared a beautiful song based on the Irish blessing ‘May the road rise up to meet you.’

Each April, we take time as a school community to recognise and celebrate the vital role our military children play within the Armed Forces family. We are incredibly proud of the resilience, adaptability and strength they show every day, whether that’s coping with change, supporting their families, or quietly helping others around them. This month gives us a special opportunity to say thank you, to listen, and to let our service children know how valued they are in our school. Jesus brought hope through encouragement, reassurance and promises of God’s love. Supporting military children reflects that same message — that challenges do not define them and that support and brighter days lie ahead. All children and adults have the opportunity to show their support by wearing purple or yellow for a day. Purple is the colour chosen as it blends the colours of all service branches. Yellow is another option as it represents the dandelion - the official flower of the military child. Parents of our military children are also invited to a tea party.

Every year we raise money for Place 2 be during Children's Mental Health Week.

Place2Be supports children’s mental health by listening, caring and offering help when children are struggling with their feelings. This shows love in action — being kind, compassionate and looking after others, especially the most vulnerable, just as Jesus taught us. Many children that Place2Be helps are facing worries, anxiety or difficult experiences. It takes great courage for them to talk about their feelings and ask for help. Place2Be gives children hope for the future by helping them understand their feelings, build confidence and believe things can get better.

Over the last 2 years we have raised over £550 for this super charity.

The Green Rangers are a team of children, representing each class, who care about looking after God’s world.
The group work together in school, to help the environment by raising awareness about environmental issues and taking action by events such as litter picks, recycling, and saving energy at school. This year we are working towards Plastic Free school status.

Our enthusiastic Green Rangers started with a Trash Mob, in the school playground and on the field, at lunchtime picking up all the litter they could find. Although they picked up approximately 110 plastic wrappers, they were impressed that the number found was down dramatically since the last litter pick and shows the impact of the wrapper free snack policy. Caring for our school environment shows love by respecting shared spaces, demonstrates hope by looking after the future and reflects the behaviour of Jesus, who taught us about care, responsibility and stewardship.

Working with the Hampshire Wildlife Trust, we have developed a long‑term vision to improve biodiversity across the site and support our school’s climate action goals. Over the coming years, this project will transform different areas of the grounds into habitats that support insects, birds, small mammals and plants, while also providing valuable outdoor learning spaces for pupils. By caring for our environment, we showhope for the future. We are helping to create a welcoming place for current pupils and for future generations. Jesus spoke about growth and renewal, often using nature in his teachings. Looking after our school environment reflects our belief that the world is God’s creation and that it is worth protecting and nurturing.

This is an exciting, hands‑on project that brings learning outdoors and helps children build a lasting connection with the natural world.

We love to visit our local church in Long Sutton for special services, to help us with our RE learning and to take part in prayer spaces. We also have lots of visitors from the local churches throughout the year, this helps us to think about different ways of worshipping God and how faith is important to different people.

Churches are places of hope, offering encouragement, prayer and support in difficult times. By working together, school and church can help children and families feel supported and hopeful about the future.
Jesus brought hope through his messages of forgiveness, new beginnings and God’s love. Our links with churches help keep that message of hope alive in our community. Over the last 2 years we have donated to the local ‘Pick ups for Peace’ delivery to the Ukraine. Two of our regular visitors came to show us the truck and we helped to pack it up. It was very exciting!
