Spring 1
Christian Weddings
The children have been learning about Christian weddings. Miss Bryan organised a 'wedding ceremony' between our two school councillors, Kyle and Daisy.
The children learnt about where to sit in church and the different roles people play in the ceremony.
We are sorry if the invitations didn't reach all the family members in time.
CONGRATULATIONS MR AND MRS COOK.
OUR ADVENT PRAYERS
Mysteries
The children are learning about God and how we are not able to understand everything about Him. The things we can not understand are called Mysteries. There are lots of Mysteries that God wants us to think about, even though we cannot understand them.
We began by looking at what Heaven will be like. We went on our school blog to write about our ideas of what Heaven look like.
HEAVEN
What happens in Heaven?
Will I sit on a cloud?
Is walking or talking
or jumping allowed?
Will I be on my own
or with some of my friends?
Doe sit go on forever
or eventually end?
What happens in Heaven?
Do I go through a gate?
What if I get myself lost
or turn up to late?
Is my name on a list?
Is the gatekeeper nice?
Can you sneak in for nothing
or is there a price.
(Taken from 'Dad You're Not Funny' by Steve Turner)
The children have written a recount of the Old Testament story about Abraham. They wrote about how Abraham trusted God and how in return, Abraham gained God's trust.
"Look at the stars above your tent at night. One day your family will be as many as that - too many to count. And still Abraham trusted God."
