Our Chaplains are an asset to our school. They are a clear expression of our Christian ethos, working with the whole school community, offering pastoral support to students and staff.
Our Chaplains, Rev Canon Jane Banister and Rev Michelle Grace, contribute to school life in many ways, including leading Collective Worship and hosting weekly lunchtime drop-in groups on Fridays at 12.30 & 1.30pm in E69 (week 1) or E66 (week 2). Our Chaplains also deliver Life Skills lessons on dealing with grief and loss, and family breakdown, and are part of our ELD programme. They lead prayers with staff on a weekly basis for those that wish to take part, and are an essential part of dealing with crises such as sudden bereavement.
The Chaplaincy is funded by the Tring Team Parish.
Weekly Collective Worship
Weekly Collective Worship happens on a Monday, and is recorded so that each form can watch it together and discuss any issues or ideas that might arise. At least once a term, each House meets in person for a Collective Worship with Jane or Michelle.
