Church and Community links

We are each unique and beautiful and together we are a masterpiece.

The Distinctiveness of being a Church of England School

As a Church of England School, Two Village has a strong link with Saint Michael’s Church in Ramsey. 

With Saint Michael’s being just a short walk from our school, we are able to visit the church at least once every term for special services throughout the year. These include a Christmas Service, an Easter Service and a Leavers’ Service. Our children and staff very much look forward to these special times when we can gather together to worship in the church; they are a highlight of the year for many.

As Saint Michael’s is a relatively small church, it is difficult for the whole school community to worship as one within the church building. We are looking forward to exploring ways of involving all members of the school community within regular worship at Saint Michael’s for the coming year.

Community

At our school, we value the importance of engaging with and interacting with the people and organisations around us. Building strong community connections benefits not only the education of our children and the school’s reputation but also helps us operate more effectively as a whole.

We aim to help our children understand the significance of community engagement, both on a local and global scale. Through this, they learn to be courageous advocates and ambassadors for our school and its values.

Our dedicated Church/Links Group meets regularly to foster and strengthen community relationships, ensuring that we continue to grow as a connected and inclusive school.

Collective Worship 

At our school, we dedicate part of each day to Collective Worship, which we believe is the unique heartbeat of a Church school. This sacred time offers pupils and adults the opportunity to encounter faith, engage in conversations about God, and reflect both individually and together as a community.

This daily act of worship enriches our community and provides a meaningful space for reflection, connection, and spiritual growth.

Religious Education

Religious Education (RE) at our school aims to inspire curiosity and deepen children’s knowledge of different religious beliefs, enabling them to have informed and respectful conversations about topics such as faith, worship, prayer, creation, God, the meaning of life, and the role of religion in society and people’s lives.

Our approach ensures children learn about and learn from different religious beliefs in a way that avoids judgment or placing greater value on one faith over another.

Children explore religious ideas through:

Children develop an in-depth understanding of Christianity through themes such as:

Links are also made between Christian teachings and the beliefs of other faiths to foster a well-rounded perspective.

Big Questions in RE - Religious Education encourages children to reflect on questions such as:
