Spirituality

At Dilton Marsh C of E Primary School, we define Spirituality as 'The awareness of being connected to something bigger than ourselves can give us a sense of worth and purpose, and values to guide us along life's path'.

We teach this through 4 areas:

  • Ourselves
  • Others
  • The World and Beauty
  • Beyond 

Spirituality is taught through weekly reflection times in class and is also woven into the curriculum and Collective Worship.

To help our children understand the concept of Spirituality, we have adopted an image drawn by one of our Year 6 children.

This is front and central to talking about spirituality. 

Each term we centre on one question or concept which is broadly centred on one of the 4 areas. This is then explored in class reflection times and recorded in class reflection books. These reflection times lead into a class worship.
