“There is more happiness in giving than in receiving”

Good morning, so it is our second installment of our whole school collective worship, please feel free to share with your children at home.

This week the focus is Love and Service.

Jesus was called the ‘servant king’: we are learning that his mission was to serve God and to serve all those people he met, through his teaching, his example and the way he led his life.

Hall of fame-

JK Rowling is best known for writing the Harry Potter novels. She was awarded the OBE for “services to children’s literature”. She used some of the money she had earned from her books to create a charity called The Lumos Foundation. This charity has changed the lives of orphaned children in Eastern Europe.

LOVE – 1 Corinthians 13:4-5

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it doe not boast, it is not proud.

SERVICE – Matthew 5:42

Learn to generously share what you have with those who ask for help and don’t close your heart to the ones who comes to you to borrow from you.

Though of the day:

Good morning, so every week on a Friday, I will be posting a whole school collective worship for you to complete with your child/ren at home.

This week the focus is Wisdom.

A Christian Perspective on Wisdom:

Christians believe that true wisdom comes from God. As a believer grows in faith so wisdom will increase. In the Bible wisdom is seen both as a gift from God and a characteristic of God. In his parables, Jesus taught that placing trust in God and recognising what is of value in life brings fulfilment.

Proverbs 4:6-7

‘Do not forsake wisdom and she will protect you: love her and she will watch over you’.

We have a wonderful video from Holy Trinity Church for you to watch: –  https://youtu.be/3e71ttF5CpA  please click the link. Within the video we focus on the bible story:

‘Matthew 7:24-27  – The Wise and Foolish Builders’.

ARE YOU UP FOR A CHALLENGE?

We are setting you a singing challenge to complete over half term and including the first week back in school. We will be studying the Bible story ‘Joseph and the coat of many colours’ when returning to school. Your challenge is to watch and listen to the powerpoint below (made by Miss Younger) and learn a song from the musical of Joseph called ‘Any dream will do’. Once you have learnt the song, can you record yourself singing and together, as a whole school, we will collate the videos and make our own version of the song.

You can find the song and lyrics attached to the post, or on You Tube:

The moral of the story is forgiveness, one of our school’s Christian Values and therefore the story has an important part in our school’s ethos and well-being of the children.

Colossians 3:13,

“Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a musical comedy with lyrics by Tim Rice and music by Andrew Lloyd Webber. The story is based on the “coat of many colours” story of Joseph from the Bible’s Book of Genesis and was produced in 1999.

Please see the PowerPoint below created by Miss Younger and complete the following tasks:

• Learn the song
• Record yourself singing
• Please send any videos in to longmynd@holytrinitycepa.co.uk by 2nd March 2021, which then gives us time to edit and create the final video.

WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER FROM ALL OF THE HOLY TRINITY FAMILY.
