All that we do at St Uny is underpinned by our Christian vision and values.
Our vision is to be a positive, loving school where children are equipped to live well with Jesus Christ and with others.
The Bible verse "Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your father in heaven", Matthew 5:16 inspires our holistic approach to education, where we help every pupil to find, develop and show their varied skills and talents, for the benefit of themselves and others.
The school community worked together to select our three whole-school Christian values.
They are:
Forgiveness
Friendship
Respect
Each value has an accompanying Bible story to help us to consider the message of each value.
The parents have chosen:
Forgiveness – Jonah and the Whale (The Book of Jonah)
The pupils have chosen:
Friendship – The Parable of the Lost Sheep (Luke 15)
The staff have chosen:
Respect – Noah’s Ark (Genesis 5)
Spiritual Development
Spiritual development relates to fundamental questions about the meaning and purpose of life which affect everyone; it is not dependent on a person’s religious beliefs or affiliation. It has to do with the universal search for individual and communal identity. ‘Life in all its fullness’ means giving emphasis to physical and intellectual development, while also meeting the needs for spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.
We have also mapped out how pupils develop spiritually across our curriculum.
