SPIRITUAL LIFE
At Wilberforce we are invested not only in what students learn, but in who they become.
The spiritual formation of students has both explicit as well as implicit expressions at Wilberforce. There is explicit instruction through morning assembly, prayer, learning the hymns of the month, Bible recitations, Bible lessons, and a weekly time of chapel. These are important habits which shape our Lower School culture as distinctively Christian.
In addition to explicit spiritual formation, there is so much that is implicit; "caught and not taught." All of our teachers have a relationship with Jesus and have signed our statement of faith. Our faculty consider teaching at Wilberforce a calling and are committed discipling and nurturing a genuine faith in their students. Students internalize faith through witnessing the lives of their teachers. Discipline, peer relationships, competition, and even classroom excellence are all addressed through a biblical worldview.
Lower School Spiritual Life
Middle and Upper School Spiritual Life
At Wilberforce we are deliberate about equipping students in heart and mind so that they can contribute as servant leaders to God's kingdom. We work towards this goal in a variety of explicit and implicit ways.
