The Primary team will be visiting 24 of York's Primary schools this half term to present an Easter assembly and a Y2 and Y5 lesson. We will be exploring the mystery of the tabernacle curtain in assembly, and why it split in two when Jesus died.

During the lessons, pupils will work their way through the whole of holy week, enabling them to put the story together. We will be using pictures and narrative in Y2, and drama and video in Y5.

We would greatly appreciate your prayers as we travel around the schools, for energy, good health and great fun! The diary is:

Godly play has played an important role in our ‘It’s your…’ programmes over the past few years and due to the amount of positive feedback we have received regarding these lessons, we have decided to offer a selection of Godly Play lessons throughout the school year, which fit in with the Key Stage one curriculum.

This week the Secondary team are in Fulford school teaching 36 RE lessons on themes such as Faith, Sex and Marriage and The Existence of God.

The team, who will teach nearly 1000 children over the course of the week, involves Al, Fiona, Malc, Dan, Andy, Graeme and Mairi Taylor-Gibson, Youth Worker from St Oswald's Church.

Please pray for them, for energy and wisdom over the course of this week.

Unless this is your first visit to our website (in which case you're very welcome) you will by now have noticed it's had a bit of an overhaul.
