After watching the story we read the story from the Children’s Bible and then we reflected upon its meaning.

When we are afraid who helps us:
Harper: God will always be there.
Hendrix:Tell you parents that you are scared and then they can help you solve the problem.
Elnathan: My parent and God because they help me.
The children then reflected upon their understandings using words and pictures.

I wonder how much light you need to be able to see something.
Elnathan – I think not a lot

The light came in the box in the little hole but our bodies blocked some of the light.

Today for play investigations we had activities where students created their own maps, enclosures for dinosaurs, collaborative colouring and many more.
Thank you for a lovely day, we will see you in the morning tomorrow.
Enjoy the photos from the day.
This morning, we were lucky to have a special guest visit Holy Family. The Greatest Discovery is a performance by Perform Education.

What message is this Chinese Story telling us?
Ma Liang used his magical paintbrush to help poor people.
Elnathan – This story was about helping the poor.
Kunal – The greedy rich man wanted the golden mountain.
Adum – The greedy man wanted a golden mountain but Ma didn’t do it for him.
Esrom – Ma Liang drew the mountain behind the sea because he had a plan.
Tina – He drew the mountain back there so he could be gone.
Senay – He drew the mountain so that he could get the man away.
Avelyn – because he was not kind.
We rolled the dice for today’s prayer and it landed on ‘Bible story’.
Elnathan looked through the Bible and choose the story from the New Testament ‘Jesus Chooses Helpers’
After we shared the story twice we reflected upon its meaning.
Elnathan: Preaching Gods words – talking about God – saying good things.
We rolled the dice and created some crazy, curious creatures
