Christian Union
Led by Mr Seymour and supported by a local church, Christian Union plays an important role in promoting the Christian ethos of the school. Members help to develop and lead the school’s Acts of Random Kindness (ARK) initiative and support special services and events throughout the year. Christian Union members have opportunities to meet with governors and local clergy to discuss and contribute ideas that help maintain and strengthen the school’s Christian character. The group is actively involved in student leadership and community service. Members helped develop the school’s Prayer Box, which contributes to Collective Worship, and regularly organise and support charitable appeals and fundraising activities. Recent projects have included support for communities in Sierra Leone, Harvest foodbank collections, volunteering at Broxbourne Foodbank, and assisting with the Christmas shoebox appeal in Harlow. Each Easter, Christian Union organises activities for the wider school community, such as prayer spaces, Easter egg hunts, cookie decorating, poster competitions, and quizzes. Students who would like to find out more about Christian Union should speak to Mr Seymour.Christian Union is a welcoming group for students and staff who wish to explore faith, discuss current issues, learn about Christianity and other faiths, and share in worship, friendship, and fellowship. The group meets every Tuesday lunchtime in the Chapel and is open to all students, regardless of faith background or whether they attend a place of worship.
