The school is situated right at the heart of Naburn village, and we really value our connections with the local church – St Mathew’s, the village and the wider community.
Our Christian Ethos is at the heart of all we do at Naburn Church of England Primary School, guided by our Vision, Values and Aims. We value our links with St Matthew’s Church, which is just across the road from school. We visit the church for services, such as Harvest, Easter and Christingle, and visit to find out more about the building and its uses. St Matthew’s Church, Naburn is an Anglican Church with a rich history dating back to the 12th century, and has served as a cornerstone of the community ever since. The purpose of the church is to provide a place for worship and spiritual growth for the local community.
‘Open the Book’ regularly come to school to lead Collective Worship.
We are also fully involved in village life, both in Naburn and Stillingfleet. For example, we worked with the local community to celebrate the school’s 150th anniversary. Click here to see more about this fantastic day!
The whole school visited Stillingfleet to learn about its history and the 250th anniversary of Methodism in the village. Members of the community told the children all about how farming has changed over the years, all about the old school and all about life in the village, including when evacuees arrived in the second world war.
It was great to hear these experiences first hand and the children loved hearing the stories.
During the school year, we also participate in other church and community events, such as Harvest Festival, Church and community galas and Carols around the Christmas Tree.
