Today we became explorer, exploring the forests of Wales. As we forgot to pack our cameras we painted pictures of the forests!
Welsh Forests
The story of Matthew
We looked at the Bible and we discussed the old testament and the new testament. The first book in the New Testament is the Gospel of Matthew. It is named after one of Jesus’ 12 disciples. We discussed the story of Matthew that is found in Matthew 9.9-13.
We found out that when Jesus was on Earth, he often spent time with people who were disliked or unpopular with others. Jesus believed that everyone should be allowed a chance for their lives to be changed so that they could have a fresh start. We discussed when we have been given a second chance and we we have given others second chances
Visiting Ffrydd Wood/Ymweld a Choed y Ffrydd
As we are unable to visit a rainforest, we walked to Ffrydd wood in Knighton. We discussed the features of the wood and made comparisons between that and the rainforest.
Walk to Ffryd Woods
We really enjoyed our walk to Ffryd Woods. We looked at all of the different trees and plants and talked about the animals that might live in the woods.

Don’t we look amazing in our Easter bonnets? We loved parading around the school for the older children to see our wonderful creations.

Knighton & District Refugee Support Group
Larry Wright visited our school on 20th March 2023 to lead a collective worship session explaining his role within the Knighton & District Refugee Support Group. We discussed what a ‘refugee’ is and what we can do to help. We found out that Knighton & District Refugee Support Group welcomes and supports people seeking refuge in the UK. Larry continues to lead fortnightly assemblies with a values based focus focusing on offering sanctuary to people facing forced migration.
