Collective Worship at Home in the Diocese of York
Anyone from any school is welcome to join in as we do all of the normal Collective Worship things – tell a Bible story, think together, sing together, pray together and more.
This can either be for groups of children who are still in school or for children currently at home.
For a more authentic experience, try sitting on an uncomfortable wooden floor!
Worship at
Home
A Worship at Home weekly resource has also been produced, including creative activities, think pieces and prayers that can be used at home or at school. These materials have been created for use by the entire school community, and schools are welcome to share them with children and families through their current remote learning channels. A new resource will be made available each week during term-time. The resources can be accessed here: www.stalbans.anglican.org/schools/worship-for-home.
IsingPop have made many of their songs available on their YouTube channel, great for engaging children at home or school (if you are open for key worker children)www.isingpop.org
