Luke 17:11-19 Gratitude is a good disposition for life. It enables us to stay aware of how blessed we are in the many good things and people around us. It is something to encourage in the children in our charge. We live in a time when many take things for granted: material goods abound and most of us have far more than we need. Yet, in the midst of plenty, we can forget how fortunate we are; we seek security in more possessions and often overlook the things we have received freely from the hands of God. Teaching our children to be appreciative of what they have received and to develop a sense of gratitude could be one of the greatest gifts we give them.
Flu Vaccines Flu vaccinations for Years 1, 2 and 3 will be taking part in school in the next few weeks. We highly recommend that siblings have their vaccines, but this must be done at your own surgery.
Spare clothes Any spare clothes, particularly underwear, for Key Stage 1 would be greatly appreciated.
