We are a week ahead of ourselves here at St.Peter’s in preparation for our worship next Monday which will be our yearly Remembrance Service. So we have been thinking about how we should be prepared for other events in our lives including those that we take part in daily. Mr. Crozier had unfortunately left some of his things behind when preparing to go swimming! How should we be as prepared as possible? How can we prepare each and every day for Jesus? How can we be ready for Him? Children rightly suggested that we should walk in his footsteps, we should be kind, loving and patient. Mr. Crozier is looking forward to hearing the children’s reflections during worship on Friday.

One of the ways we prepare for Jesus is by taking His lead in difficult decisions in our lives. We continue, in lessons, to reflect on our feelings that surround forgiveness. How can we be good Christians and follow Jesus’s lead? Children across the school also continue to learn Catholic prayers and their meaning – for example the prayer of Eternal Rest.

As a staff we spent some time looking at the wonderful learning journeys in our RE books. Below are some photos of Reception’s class book. We think that you will agree they are beautiful. The children have been thinking about Mary and their own mothers. This week they visited the chapel at Oaklands to find out all about the signs and symbols that we see there.

Have a happy weekend,
