Christianity -God.  Does how we treat the world matter?

The Creation Story

After listening to All Things Bright and Beautiful we identified the beliefs and values contained in these words.

 

Diwali 
The children enjoyed making Barfi sweets for our Diwali celebration.  Also we thought of some interesting questions so we could ask Sriindira during the Hot Seat session.  

On Thursday the church wardens from Clayton Brook Community Church visited Year 2 and we made a Christingle and talked about the symbolism of the special candle.    Thank you to Jo (Asda's Community Champion) for donating the Christingle packs.
