APRE

Prayer

Prayer_Week_8.JPG

This year, Garratt Publishing’s Lent Calendar is exploring the places where Jesus did his ministry. While there is some debate over where many of the events in Jesus’ life occurred, the locations shown are generally accepted by scholars as being the most likely place for the selected event, based on descriptions in the Gospel and archaeological finds. The images selected show what the landscape looks like today, and in some cases, what it may have been like in Jesus’ time. You may like to use this resource to reflect and journey with Christ this Lent.

Bravehearts Visit  

Today we had the team from Bravehearts visit Prep-Year 6 students for the Ditto Personal Safety show. The students were able to learn about personal safety in a fun and interactive way. Ditto the lion cub and the presenters went through the following six principles of personal safety: 

  • Differentiating ‘yes’ and ‘no’ feelings 
  • Recognizing the bodies ‘warning signs’ 
  • Body ownership 
  • Helping children identify language and feelings associated with secrets 
  • Reinforcing that there is no secret that children cannot tell someone 
  • What to do if you feel unsafe or unsure 

You may want to speak with your child about the show and the six principles. If there are any concerns, please contact the school.
