Reverend Ian came to visit us this morning. We talked about a story from the bible about Jesus and some of his friends. They were in the boat and there was a storm. His friends were very frightened. We talked about things that make us feel frightened. The children suggested some ideas such as exams, starting a new school etc. We then talked about what we could do if we feel frightened. The children had some great ideas such as tell a teacher, grandparents, family or a trusted adult. We then sang a song with him and our friends.

 

The Easter Story!

11th April 2025N Sikka

In RE year one have focusing on the Easter story and the true meaning behind Easter. We looked at Palm Sunday and sequenced the story, made posters about Maundy Thursday and the Last Supper, then we made Easter cards using a stained glass window effect with a cross to symbolise Jesus being crucified on the cross on Good Friday. The children were truly fascinated about the story and learning about new life and the resurrection, and how it linked to getting chocolate eggs from the Easter Bunny.

We had an assembly with Reverend Ian from St John’s church. Today he talked to the children about break time. He recalled a story from the New Testament regarding the day of Sabbath. He talked about how the day of Sabbath is a day of rest, time to recharge and how beneficial it is. He then discussed whether we should also do jobs, relating it to Jesus helping people on the Sabbath day. We talked about Jesus healing people and helping others. How we could also help people during our breaks? The children came up with some fabulous ideas of how we can help each other during our breaks. Suggestions such as helping people who are lonely by playing with them, if someone is hurt then make sure they are ok or get them some help, let people join in with games or agree to play a few different games so everyone gets to choose their own ideas. We then had a school prayer and sang a song.
