For kids in Year 1 and up, Ethos is a lunchtime club that meets on Thursdays from 12:20 to 12:25. Children's knowledge and comprehension of the school's Christian principles, such as the Fruit of the Spirit and children's rights, are developed via enjoyable and engaging activities in Ethos Club. Games, debates, and crafts are among the activities. We are working on Ethos, a kid-led club that is facilitated by Mrs. Moxley and Miss Porter, as part of being a rights-respecting school. Once a month, a small group of kids get together to arrange events that highlight a Christian ideal, a Fruit of the Spirit, or a provision of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The next three weeks, kids in grades 1 through 6 are invited to participate in these events. The Ethos Committee is in charge of outlining and managing their activity. In an effort to have members from each year group on the committee, Mrs. Moxley and Miss Porter, along with the committee, are striving to increase awareness of and interest in Ethos Club.
