GK 5TIME OUT - SEPTEMBER 2024

Highgate House proved to be a wonderful venue for our Flame Family Autumn Conference. The weather was amazing, and there was plenty of time to explore the delights of Northamptonshire and indeed the Highgate Estate, which was ideal for rest and relaxation.

CHAPLAINCY MINISTRY

Chaplaincy Meeting PicTimes change, and Heads of Schools and Academies come and go – as do the CEO’s of Academy Trusts. So, we are in the process of realigning and reassessing our Chaplaincy Ministry support to make sure that we continue to provide spiritual input where most needed. Please pray for us as we plan for all of the opportunities and challenges ahead.
