One Voice Agenda 14/01/2025

Date: 14th Jan 2025 @ 11:02am

Welcome back to One Voice!

Last week we talked about goals for the new year, how have you worked on these goals this past week?

Christian Values

This week in worship we heard the story of the good Samaritan. This story helps us explore our value of respect.

Who do you respect and why? What sort of behaviour earns respect? What can you do to earn the respect of others? 

Important dates this week:

Friday 17^th January is World Penguin Day that raises much-needed awareness about the plight of penguins. Penguins are adorable creatures, admired worldwide, yet many dangers threaten their existence. These dangers include climate change, overfishing, toxic plastics, invasive species, oil spills, and habitat destruction. Did you know? Penguins have binocular vision. And guess what? They can see underwater and on land! Do you know any facts about Penguins?

Discussion: Lunch time

We are really lucky at St Pauls as we have a fantastic lunchtime team of adults who work hard to make sure all children are safe and happy at lunch times. They are an important part of school life. Lunch times can be very busy in the playground because all the children are outside having an important play.

What are the names of staff who support you at lunch time?

What could we do to be helpful and support the lunch time staff?  

What do we do if we need help?

How can we make sure we are kind and respectful to staff who work at lunch time?

Last week we asked you to practise using your manners, can you remember to do this at lunch time?

Share your thoughts with the group and remember to be a good listener whilst others are talking, you might hear something inspirational!

Positive Affirmation for today:

Practicing morning affirmations can help you start your day on the right track. It puts you in a good headspace for tackling the rest of the day. This kind of positive self-talk becomes easier with practice and when you remember them they will pop into your head when you need it most. Can you remember last weeks?

I am proud of myself.

Thank you and have a great week! 😊
