In response to the many wars and conflicts ongoing in the world today, we would love you to join us in our Action for Peace!

The children at Marwood have created a powerful display of decorated stones on the War Memorial at Christ Church based on the words of the song ‘Let there be peace on Earth… and let it begin with me.’ Archbishop Stephen Cotterill and Canon Peverell have also decorated a stone each in support.

We would love you to add your decorated stone to the display – you could add a word, message or simply a self portrait. Together, we can make a difference. It takes just one person to change the world!

“Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me

Let there be peace on earth, the peace that was meant to be.

With God as our Father, brothers all are we

Let me walk with my brother in perfect harmony.

To take each moment and live each moment in peace eternally

Let there be peace on earth … and let it begin with me.”

We were delighted to welcome the Archbishop of York and other special guests to our school this morning to launch our Action for Peace initiative.  The Archbishop joined us in collective worship and then spent some time in each classroom and with the Trinity Group.  Our worship was around the theme of "Let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me".  Children then undertook a number of activities, including painting their version of themselves onto stones which we hope to use to start a path of peace that the community can also contribute to.  All present painted their 'me', including the Archbishop.

Many thanks to all who Co-op members who named school as the beneficiary for the Community Funding.  We are delighted to be able to tell you that we’ve received £6031.65 to fund our project of buying new planters, raised vegetable beds and plants!
