In RE this week we really enjoyed sharing photographs of our own Baptism’s and spotting the font and Baptism candles too! We have also been focusing on the sign of the cross and now know that when we were Baptised the priest and our God parents made this sign on our foreheads too! We know that when we make the sign of the cross we are showing everybody that we love God! On Wednesday we listened to this week Gospel and have reflected on how we can be God’s messengers through our words, actions and prayers.
GOING DEEPER IN CONVERSATION
In Kidsafe this week we explored “Bullying” and what this word means. The children reflected on our previous lessons about Yucky Feelings and our Trusted adults too. The children know that bullying is someone doing something on purpose repeatedly to the same person, Several Times On Purpose! We practised saying STOP using our strong voices, walking away and telling a trusted adult.
Please read the parent letter to go with this session and have a chat.
MAGICAL MOMENTS OF LEARNING
This week we have celebrated how special God has made us. We had a lovely discussion about our special people and why they are special to us. The children had to take it in turns to talk with their partners and to listen to each other as they spoke about their special people. After this discussion Miss Canham completed the focus task and continued this discussion.. their were lots of smiles as the children spoke about their special people!
LET’S CELEBRATE
This week our Loving and Compassionate star is ZARA. Well done Zara, you are always so kind, caring and have such an understanding nature.
