Class 3 Welcome a New Arrival!


Class 3 were very lucky this week as Father Edwin kindly spent a whole morning with us, teaching the children about the roles and duties of church workers and the important vestments, sacraments and symbolism associated with Father Edwin's work.

After a hands-on lesson in the classroom, where we learned all about Father Edwin's daily duties and got to dress up in his special clothes, we strode down to St Cadocs Church to take part in a mock christening ceremony for our new dolly God-daughter, Lucy Ann Reid. And very well behaved she was too!

We all had a great morning and learned lots about how busy Father Edwin is and what it means to become a Christian.

Techniquest Space Craft Challenge - The children were asked to design and create a space craft that could lower a rover on to mars’ surface safely.  The children considered what materials they could use to both protect the rover and slow the craft down so that it achieved a smooth landing.
