This week, at school, we have had many visitors talking to the children about their, occupations. We never think children are too young to consider their options for the future. We have had such a variety of visitors including an electrical engineer, entrepreneur, railway worker, naval aviator, bridal shop owner, seamstress, fire fighter, police, cattery owner and personal trainer. What a lot of inspiration for our children! Thank you to everyone who joined us.

Today we took our Harvest Service to the Care Home in Cerne Abbas. We sang them our harvest songs ably introduced by William, Maddie and Alex. The elderly people loved it and sang along with us. The children loved it too and a few expressed how much pleasure it had given them to bring the elderly joy through our singing (one of our school values).

Today we had a day off timetable where we found out the meaning behind the Lord's Prayer and also learnt to recite it. In Miss Stephen's class the children listened to different versions of the Lord's Prayer being sung. They created art work as they listened quietly and reflected on it. They learnt the prayer using actions.

In Trendle Class they drew picture on 'our daily bread' of what God has provided for us and then ate it. They also thought about 'forgive us our sins' and wrote on a tissue paper person something we needed to forgive someone for and the put it in water and watched it fade anyway. This is what happens when we forgive people or when God forgives us. It makes us feel better. Finally Abbey class enjoyed playing fun games to help them remember the prayer.
