To help keep all pupils safe, please ensure the school has up-to-date information about any allergies your child may have. Accurate allergy information enables us to put appropriate support plans in place, train staff effectively, and respond quickly in an emergency. We all have a part to play in creating a safe environment, including following our nut-aware policy and being mindful of the food brought into school. If your child has an allergy, please contact the school or update their details via Arbor. Be Allergy Aware and Save A Life - see more here.

Collective Worship

At Furzeham Primary School, we believe that Collective Worship plays an important role in the life of our school because it;

  • promotes a sense of ‘awe and wonder’
  • provides an opportunity to worship God
  • helps children experience and understand the nature and language of worship
  • encourages the adults and children in our school, to respect themselves and to respect others, their cultures, their differences and their opinions.
  • encourages them to reflect, think deeply and consider and express the emotions and ideas that relate to the their own beliefs and those of others
  • celebrates all aspects of school life, sharing the gifts and talents of our children
  • supports our whole school curriculum especially Personal and Social Education  and  helps children to make connections between Collective Worship/Re and other lessons
  • develops in our children a sense of care and tolerance and the courage to take responsibility for their own actions 
  • provides an opportunity for stillness and reflection in what is often a very busy, active day
