Collective Worship at Hertford St Andrew is very much part of our daily school life. It allows time and space for reflection and promotes the spiritual, moral and cultural development of our children. As a Church of England school, our worship is an integral part of each school day. Collective Worship is child friendly and interactive. Collective Worship is our time to come together as a school community and engage in fellowship with one another. It is our time to engage in scripture or stories and to be still and reflect. 

Worship is led by a range of adults (and children) including the Headteacher, class teachers, Reverend Alan and Tracy Plumpton (from Hertford St Andrew Church),  and visitors from the wider community. Worship includes Bible readings, songs and hymns, current affairs, British Values, wellbeing topics and PSHCE. It promotes pro-social behaviours.

We also share in each other's joys during our Celebration Worship on Fridays where Shining Light awards are given to children nominated by not just class teachers but those in our wider school community and engage in song through Singing Worship on Wednesdays. The children sing traditional hymns as well as well known songs that best fit our Christian Ethos as a school including 'This Little Light of Mine' 'My Lighthouse' - by Rend Collective and Bridge Over Troubled Water. Children are also able to share in invitational prayer during worship, wether togther as the whole school or during Classroom Worship.
