Week beginning 14/07/2025

What a fantastic week it’s been for our EYFS children! 

One of the week's highlights was a special Rock Steady music event held in the church. The children had a wonderful time singing, dancing, and experiencing live music up close. It was a joyful celebration that had everyone clapping along and feeling like true rock stars!   

 

Worship theme of the week:

Changing Seasons  - A Time for Everything  

Ecclesiastes 3.1–8 

For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.  A time to be born and a time to die.  

A time to plant and a time to harvest.  

A time to kill and a time to heal.  

A time to tear down and a time to build up. 

A time to cry and a time to laugh.  

A time to grieve and a time to dance.  

A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones.  

A time to embrace and a time to turn away. 

A time to search and a time to quit searching.  

A time to keep and a time to throw away.  

A time to tear and a time to mend.  

A time to be quiet and a time to speak.  

A time to love and a time to hate.  

A time for war and a time for peace.  

Hebrews 13:8   Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. 

Matthew 19:26 “with God all things are possible.”

Reading:

We would love to see the children in EYFS using their extra time at home to read some brilliant books. If children read three times at home, they get a raffle ticket. Please, therefore, keep a quick record in reading logs – your children can write the title in to help! We would also like to encourage children to bring their reading records into school every day.

Coming up:

• Tuesday 22nd July- Last day at school finish at 1:20pm. 

Many thanks for all of your support,

Miss Daw & Miss Wingate
