The Pupil Chaplains are a group of Year 6 pupils who are linked as representatives to each class throughout the school. During weekly meetings, the pupils plan how they might support the development of Torre as a church school, looking for opportunities for worship and also encouraging the participation of others in response to our worship or reflections.

​

The Children:

​

• Support our local church once a month with their Sunday family service, finding opportunities to link what we are doing in school with our church and community. 

• Wear a different uniform to the other pupils to ensure they are identifiable. 

• Take part in whole school worship, reading their own prayers and Bible readings.

• Lead their own Collective Worship, based around our school values.

• Encourage their peers and teachers to consider our school values in all areas of the curriculum.

• Develop a relationship with their linked class and work to ensure they deliver engaging, age-appropriate opportunities for worship and reflection.

• Support our school pupils and staff to uphold the Christian values at all times.

• Apply and interview to become a Pupil Chaplin and if successful, they wear a different school jumper to ensure they are easily identifiable by our community.

• Keep a journal to support their linked class to look back and reflect upon their learning during class worship.

 

The group are currently working towards:

​

• Helping class members to develop a reflective worship area within each classroom.

• Increasing the local communities involvement with our local Parish Church.
