Year 3 and 4 Celebration of the Word

Date: 16th Sep 2025 @ 12:41pm

Today we celebrated Laudato Si and thought about how we can care for our common home. We listened a reading from Genesis and to the song Wonderful World and thought about our wonderful world.

 

"I loved listening to the song at the end. It made me feel calm."

"I am going to make sure I throw my rubbish away so it doesn't make our world look messy." 

"We only have one world and we need to look after it."
