Croftlands Juniors Transition Assembly and Leson

Today Sarah and I were joined by Vic and Andre and together we took the assembly at Croftlands Juniors.  The theme was change, we started by singing God Can do Anything then between us we did a short sketch about Paul and the changes he went through as he changed from someone who hated the Christians to someone who spoke to more people about Jesus than anyone else at that time.  The focus was on the fact that he had changed and we can change too.  We sometimes get stuck in the same routine day in and day out like what time we eat, what we wear to the things we like doing.  This was demonstrated during the drama sketch as there was Mr Change who kept on changing his hair to Mrs Same who didn't change anything including her socks.  Paul visited their travel agent shop and told everyone how he had changed, Paul kept coming back to make travel plans as he went on to more and more places.  Following the assembly we did the transition lesson with year 6 which took about an hour.  The children moved around the hall and visited four stations each one looking at a different aspect and potential problem in a new secondary school.  Then at the end we summed up what the lesson was about said a prayer and dismissed the group.
