Collective Worship 6.3.23
Mrs Church told the story of Jeremiah, an important Old Testament prophet, who was given a very difficult choice: stop telling people about God or else go to prison or even get hurt. What would you do?
Children voted: Jeremiah should show Courage and Perseverance and continue to do what he believed was right, even though it was dangerous.
And that is exactly what Jeremiah did.
Mrs Church interviewed teachers and children with these three questions:
- From 1-10, how much do you think you persevere?
- Can you remember a time when you persevered and it had an impact on you or somebody else?
- What are you persevering with right now?
Mrs King has persevered in learning about her ancestry. Noah persevered in a tough football match. Daniil has persevered to learn six languages. (SIX!) How about you?
Kingfishers Music
Kingfishers worked in pairs to write an 8 beat per bar that fitted in with a piece of music.Â
Singing Assembly 28.2.23Â
This week we had a very special singing performance by Year 2 children Jack, Ellen and Charlie, accompanied on ukulele by children from Herons. They chose to perform ‘How Great Thou Art’ and ‘The Wellerman’ and we were all blown away by their confidence and wonderful singing voices! As it is the time of Lent when Christians remember the time leading up to Jesus’s death on the cross, we learned the second verse of How Great Thou Art:
And when I think that God, His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin
Also, a group of Year 6 children announced a whole-school musical project: each class in our school will be filmed performing a song or piece of music and it will be edited together to showcase all of the wonderful musicians we have here. Stay tuned for forthcoming updates!
