BE MORE – this year’s Project Compassion theme – is being adopted wonderfully in classrooms. Here are some images from Reception A, with what the children expressed alongside the images.
|
Annabelle "I am helping Poppy when she fell over. Someone bumped into her. I helped her stand up."
|
|
Ruby
"I am praying to Jesus. We talk to Jesus."
|
|
Archer S "This is me playing with Zaia. We are playing dinosaurs. I am playing with her." |
|
Lilly
"This is Annabelle and me. Annabelle has a bleeding knee. I am helping her."
|
The children have been taught that to BE MORE is more important than to want more. Please talk about how each member of your family can BE MORE at home and in the community. Being more kind could involve family members giving up something so that they can donate money to Project Compassion.
Food tree
We are once again inviting families to become involved in our school community Food Tree. The Food Tree has been established to assist and support families who may find themselves in need of meals due to illness in the family or other unforeseen circumstances. If you would like to become involved in the 2021 Food Tree group, please email Mike Proctor indicating your willingness to prepare meals for families in need within our school community. Your involvement is confidential and once you have indicated your interest in being involved you will be notified when food is needed. In anticipation of your support, thank you. In the past we have had several families experience significant difficulties in some way and it has been the support of the Group that has assisted in these times of struggle.
