Remembrance Service by Garry

Sadly, Garry has not been able to join us in person to deliver his Remembrance Service but we are pleased that he has provided us with his virtual worship.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Spellings 6.11.20

We are continuing to learn the spelling patterns this half-term.

This weeks words are homophones which are words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings. It is important that children understand the meaning and how to use the words in context. You can look at finding other homophones too!

Responsibility

Our value for this half-term is Responsibility.

The Bible teaches that life is a gift from God and it is our responsibility to use our talents and abilities in the best way we can.

RESPONSIBILITY

In school this may be shown as: making good decisions about our own behaviour, taking responsibility for our learning, being independent and caring for others. Responsibility also includes thinking about being a good citizen and caring for our environment.

We have started off by thinking about how we can take responsibility for what we say. A follower of Jesus, called James, wrote to some people who were members of the church. He said that the tongue was like a tiny spark that could spread. We reminded ourselves that it was good to use our words to help, encourage others, and to be kind.

Dear God,
Thank you that we are all special to you.
Thank you that you made us all different.
Please help us to look for the good in those around us.
Please help us to look beyond our circle of friends
to see those who may be on their own, lonely and needing someone to talk to.

Amen

Should I send my child to school? (Useful guidance)

I know it is very hard for everyone in making a decision about whether children should be sent to school in the current climate. The attached flow-chart was sent by the LA and might provide useful guidance if your child appears slightly unwell.

Harvest

This year we have celebrated Harvest in a very different way. We missed being able to come together in the church as a whole school community. Garry produced a Harvest Festival for us all to watch and each class have contributed too! A BIG thank you to everyone who has donated tins, packets and toiletries for the Bridgnorth Foodbank. It just shows that even though we couldn’t all get together in person, we are all able to take the time to support others.

Happy Harvest from Yellow Class

Dear God,
We thank you for all the gifts of ripened fruit and vegetables
you give to us at Harvest time.
For the bread and the cereals on our table every day
and for all the other good things we have to eat.
Help those who are less fortunate
and grant us all your peace this day and for evermore.
Amen.

Year 6 Secondary School Information

We know that it has been a difficult year for parents and carers of Year 6 children with regard to making a decision about secondary schools. Some have managed to go and look around the schools but things have not been done in the usual way. Both Oldbury Wells and Bridgnorth Endowed have sent some information to support you with making this important decision.
