On Monday, Rebecca came in for worship to discuss to the story of Jesus the Provider and the children thought about how they can share and help others. In Singing Assembly this week, we listened to the 'Sugar Plum Fairy' and traced the music with our fingers. Harley then sang on the stage an emotional song, showing spirit and talent. We all then sang 'Every move I make, I make for you Lord Jesus.' We ended by our first attempt at 'Dynamite' by Taio Cruz before we will sing this in a round next week. If there are any other parents that would like to either play an instrument or sing please email or speak to Mrs Bruguier. Today we celebrated our Stars of the Week.
