Respect others

This week we have focused on respecting others in all of our assemblies, considering how this should influence our behaviour and how we work together as a school community. We have had some great ideas put forward about what this means in practice and some really good examples to learn from  when things haven't gone exactly as we anticipated. We have also reminded ourselves that saying sorry to someone is also a sign of respect.

In assembly on  Friday we will be looking at the story of the Roman centurion who respected Jesus' authority and through this his servant was healed. Its an amazing story of Jesus' compassion and power to heal, but also an amazing story of faith that is a challenge to us all. The story can be found in Matthew 8:5-13.

Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! Let it be done just as you believed it would.” And his servant was healed at that moment.
