Advent and Christmas part one

We have been exploring the meaning of Advent over the past week and looking at the promises that God had made about the Messiah.

We have been also been considering the relevance of a new star that appeared in the sky and how this led to certain people to giving up their home comforts and setting of on a long journey.

At the same time we have been preparing the school for Christmas, decorating our school halls, getting ready for our Christmas productions, learning new songs and at the same time taking a few moments each day to pause and reflect about the true meaning of the baby that was laid in a manger.

It's a hectic time, but it always brings many great memories for us as a school community.
