Ash Wednesday in church
Today all of the school attended St Johns Church for our Ash Wednesday service. We enjoyed learning about the compassion that Jesus showed to Zacchaeus and how meeting Jesus changed his life.
We even had a pancake race and a dramatic retelling of the story. Readings were provided by 6M and the Finches and prayers by the Ducking's and 6S. As usual our orchestra performed at the start and end of the services and we very much enjoyed being joined by parents and family members.
The church is a special place for us as a school and we will look forward to gathering together again in a few weeks to celebrate Easter.
