This half-term we are looking at the Christian value of 'courage'. Today in Church Chris the Vicar shared the story of Paul and Silas and how they demonstrated the Christian value of courage.

Tuesday 30th September Open Morning for Reception 2026 9.30am

Following our public consultation on admission arrangements, the Governing Board of our school has decided to remove attendance at church as a criterion from our admission policies from September 2026. We had 3 responses to the consultation which were carefully considered by Governors. The governors decided that the changes proposed in the consultation should be adopted.
The governors wish to reassure the school community that removing church attendance criteria from the admission process is entirely separate from, and does not change, the Christian foundation and ethos of the school. Our mission statement: ‘In God's family learning, loving, growing to be our very best’ based on John 10:10, and our stated Christian values, will continue to underpin school life at Tanworth.

Thank you to everyone who donated cakes, sent money in to buy a cake, purchased Children in Need merchandise and made a donation to via Parentpay. We will let you know next week when all the money has been added up how much we have raised for such a worthy cause.
Don’t forget there will be a cake sale after school with the remaining cakes and we still have some CIN wrist bands left.
A special thank you to the School Council and Miss Evens for organising such a great day raising money.
Good luck to a group of mums who are walking 26.2miles at the weekend in the Peak District to raise money for CoppaFeel! The mums are walking in memory of Anjlee who sadly passed away during the summer.
