Wednesday 24th June Skylarks home learning

Date: 23rd Jun 2020 @ 8:04pm

A happy Wednesday morning, you are already half way through the week nearly!

It was lovely to see some of you yesterday when you were picking up your home learning packs. It made me realise just how much I have been missing you all. I can’t believe how tall you have all grown, each and every one of you has shot up! If you missed out on coming yesterday, we will be doing the same thing again in a couple of weeks with a newer pack again. As you know, I will be leaving at the end of the academic year and will be moving to a bigger school in Warrington. You have all been a massive part of my Lostock Gralam story! I hope that you can all come down and see me the next time we invite you into school as it would be lovely to say a proper goodbye to you all! Looking forward to the future though, you all look so ready for Year 6 and Mrs Downing and Mrs Whittingham are very lucky to be teaching you next year.

I am so proud of each and every one of you and the work that you have been doing!

Mrs Hulse has decided to read you a fun short story called: Thank you baked potato- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sipCbCwyu_k

Message from Mrs Powell:

Honesty

My Mum used to tell me and my brothers and sister this story.

What would you have said to the boy to help him? 

Jesus told his disciples a story to teach them about honesty. He told them about a rich man who had a manager, and the manager was using the man's money for himself. When the rich man discovered that the manager was wasting his money, he called him in and fired him. After telling this story, Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much."

If you and I make sure that we are honest in the small things, then we can be sure that we will be honest in the big things. If people know that they can trust us in small things, they will know that they can trust us in the big things too.

Dear God

Please help us to remember what Jesus taught about honesty and help us to be honest in every situation big or small.

Amen.

Take care everyone and remember to keep smiling you are all doing a fantastic job!

Miss Thwaites and Mrs Hulse x
