The Bishop of Portsmouth visits The Bay CE School

We were delighted to receive a visit from Rt Rev Dr Jonathan Frost, Bishop of Portsmouth, to our school on Wednesday. He was thrilled to meet pupils and staff, who welcomed him to our school community. He started at the primary site with a tour around the classrooms, then he was led by four Year 6 pupils as they walked him over to the secondary site.

At the secondary site he was joined by some Year 7 pupils, who, along with the Year 6 pupils, asked him a variety of interesting questions such as...

What can the church do to support mental health?

How would you motivate people to find out more about Christianity?

Do you think it’s important for all students to study RE in school and why?

What is your favourite part of being a Bishop?

What was your favourite subject at school?

After listening with great interest to the pupils and chatting through their questions, he had a tour of the secondary site.
