Journey Day. 🌟
💫 The whole school came together today for Journey Day, something we have done and valued for many years. It is a time when we step away from the traditional timetable and focus on spiritual development. The children spent the day in their house teams rather than their usual classes and it was so lovely to see them working with different children.
This term our theme was Christmas, with the scripture, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.”
During the day, children moved through a range of stations including:
✨Creating stable scenes in Forest School
✨Exploring nativity interpretations from around the world
✨Making nativity themed decorations and clay stars
✨Creating Christingles and learning about their meaning
✨A music session with Mr Jones and Mr Kitcher learning songs about light and understanding the lyrics
✨A calm reflection room for prayer and quiet thought
To finish the day, the children came together to reflect on the day and perform a song they had learnt in their music session. We were also joined by our Reverend Gareth who closed the day with a thoughtful prayer.
