SMSC Vision Statement

‘To be the best we can be.’

At Minster-in-Sheppey Primary School we are committed to promoting children’s - spiritual, moral, social and cultural (SMSC) development SMSC is embedded in all curriculum areas and underpins our whole school ethos creating an environment where children thrive.

SMSC provides children with the knowledge and understanding, values, attitudes and skills which they need to leave our school as informed, empathetic, thoughtful and respectful community members , who are ready to successfully make the transition to secondary school. Or aim is to ensure that our pupils are able to play a significant role in and enrich the communities they live in and the world beyond.

For further information about how SMSC development is shown and promoted within our school please refer to the PowerPoints SMSC and SMSC at Minster below.

Countrystyle Recycling Assembly

Year 3 and Year 4 had the pleasure of listening to Jolene from Countrystyle as she taught us all about recycling. We learnt about the 3 R's- Reuse, Reduce, Recycle- and discovered the different types of materials that can be recycled. To our surprise, this included almost everything, even food! 

We flexed our Minster Muscles by listening carefully, sharing our ideas, and asking thoughtful questions. It was fun and an informative session that reminded us how important it is to look after our planet.
