Spiritual Development

At Woodchurch CE Primary we believe that spiritual development is not necessarily religious but is a ‘concern to foster the growth of the human spirit’. 

 

We consider that spiritual development is about helping children to develop academically but more importantly personally so that they become well rounded and ready to take their place in society fulfilled, happy, spiritually aware and socially and emotionally engaged.

 

We believe that spirituality is essential for personal happiness and belonging. No child is complete without spiritual engagement, be it through art, music, literature, nature etc. One of the ways spirituality can be expressed is through the awareness or understanding of the value of silence and reflection. We therefore actively provide opportunities for our children to reflect and give them time to think more deeply about things to fully appreciate the world around them and to consider the contribution they can make to it.
