Your School’s Values.
God’s Word.
Every School Day.
What if children could discover their school’s own Christian values in Scripture — and explore how to live them out at home, at school and at church?
The Lightboat connects Gospel stories, beautiful illustrations, interactive learning and practical action in a journey shaped around your school’s Christian vision.
This example uses the Fruits of the Holy Spirit. Imagine it using your school’s own Christian values.
Bring Your Christian Vision and Values to Life. Every School Day.
An inspiring, interactive Gospel journey built around your school’s Christian vision and values. Choose your own Scriptures, or let us suggest meaningful Bible passages that bring your vision to life — helping children explore, understand and live out your values every day. Rooted in John 10:10: life in all its fullness.
The interactive example uses the Fruits of the Holy Spirit to show how the journey works. Your school’s own values and selected Bible passages shape its bespoke journey.
Look at the Story
Children explore the Bible story through beautiful artwork, noticing the people, the setting and what is happening.
Meet Jesus
Children encounter Jesus through Scripture and discover his promise of life in all its fullness (John 10:10).
See the Whole Journey
They explore how their school’s chosen Scriptures connect into the wider Gospel story.
Discover Our Values
They recognise their own school’s Christian values in Scripture; the Fruits of the Holy Spirit are demonstration examples.
Live Our Values
They live their school’s values through practical action at home, school and church.
See what happens when Scripture meets Christian values.
In our demonstration, children explore seven Gospel stories through the nine Fruits of the Holy Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
They don’t just see a Bible verse and picture. They explore what Jesus says and does, connect the story with Christian values, and consider a practical response.
From the Gospel to everyday life
Five purposeful stages help children encounter Scripture, think about Jesus, recognise Christian values and consider what they mean for daily living.
Children move from encountering Jesus in Scripture to understanding their school’s Christian values and discovering how to live them out in everyday life.
Look at the Story
Children explore the Bible story through beautiful artwork, noticing the people, the setting and what is happening.
Meet Jesus
Explore his words, choices and actions.
See the Whole Journey
Understand the connected events and meaning of the story.
Discover Our Values
Explore connections with Christian values — including your school’s own.
Live Our Values
Choose practical responses at home, at school and at church.
Not just knowing the values. Living them.
The Lightboat doesn’t stop when children understand a story.
It asks what the story might mean for the way they notice others, show care, make choices and take action in their everyday lives.
In the demonstration, children can explore responses for home, school or church. In a bespoke journey, these connections can reflect the values that shape your school community.
Bring Your Christian Vision and Values to Life.
Every School Day.
The LightBoat™ brings your school’s Christian vision, values and chosen Scriptures together in a beautiful interactive journey, helping children explore the Gospel and put their school’s values into practice at school, at home and in church.
Your vision. Your values. Your Scriptures. Every LightBoat™ journey is shaped around your school’s distinctive Christian identity. You can choose the Bible passages that best express your vision and values, or, if you prefer, we can suggest inspiring Scriptures that bring your Christian vision and values to life.
We begin with your vision
Share your school’s Christian vision and values, together with any Scriptures you have chosen. If you prefer, we can recommend inspiring Bible passages that express and strengthen them.
We shape the Gospel journey
Together, we create an interactive journey through beautiful artwork, Gospel encounters, reflection and practical action, shaped by your school’s values rather than a fixed generic list.
Up to 190 teaching days of Scripture and pictures.
Imagine having a Scripture-and-picture resource for every teaching day of the year.
We can create a bespoke collection of up to 190 daily resources, using Scriptures your school supplies or passages and pictures selected for you.
Alongside the interactive Gospel journeys, these resources can support regular engagement with Scripture and keep your Christian vision in view throughout the year.
Two complementary opportunities: deeper interactive Gospel journeys and a daily collection of Scripture and pictures.
A Christian vision children can encounter
Help pupils connect the biblical foundations of their school’s values with the way they treat others, respond to challenges and contribute to their community.
The Lightboat is designed to complement your school’s RE curriculum, collective worship and wider Christian ethos provision — not replace them.
Your school’s values could be the next journey.
