Our new value for this half term is Courage.
In worship, we have been talking about how people in the Bible showed courage, for example Moses hearing from the talking bush, or Esther going to Xerxes to save the Jews.
The children have been thinking about their own courage, and how this doesn’t mean not being afraid, but rather accepting their fear and having a go anyway. We are looking forward to seeing lots of courage as we tackle some new adventures on the residential visit next week!
Some of the children responded to worship by writing poems this week. Here is just one example:
Courage is a little voice at the end of the day saying I’ll try again tomorrow
Overcoming your fears
Understanding courage isn’t a roar
Respecting everyone’s fears
Always be courageous
Getting back up and trying again
Everyone has fears to overcome.
