A wonderful morning at Whalley Abbey for our Heads & Deputies Induction Programme. Leaders from Poulton le Sands, St George's Chorley & St Luke's & St Philip's primary schools shared how they've forged meaningful relationships with parents, the church & wider community.

We're so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for coming 😀

The day was all about The Dove Stone, a Christian fiction book for 7-11 year olds which looks at the theme of prayer. The author, Pam Daunton, read extracts from her book which were then used to guide the children in their learning. Dernier Publishing

Today, we held our 17th annual Pupil's RE Conference where pupil representatives from across schools in our Diocese came together to learn, worship and be encouraged.

We're glad you're enjoying the day! We love the Pupils' RE Conference with these fantastic children. (And the chocolate cookies are a definite bonus!)

A prayer for St George's Day. 🙏

What beautiful artwork, well done to everyone involved!

We enjoyed a beautiful Easter Service, led by our children from Year 3, as they performed 'The Tale of the Three Trees'.
The singing from the whole school was wonderful!
