Our Lady's Dalton

We have just done our very first assembly with the children of Our Lady's in Dalton. It must have been a little strange for the children to see two adults in their school that they had never seen before but the children soon warmed to us as we introduced ourselves to them as Sarah and Mark. I then asked them did they know which was which? this brought a laugh - We started the assembly with 'Our God is a Great Big God' and as it was the first time we had to teach them the actions. The children soon picked them up and joined in. The story Sarah did with the tomato puree - emptying it out onto a plate then watching the two children as they try to put it back in again. I then explained that our mouth and tongue can be a bit like that because we say things and once they are said we can not take them back again. I picked on a member of staff that we knew and shouted at her to demonstrate this to the children. I then read from James 3:5 which talks about the tongue. The assembly finished with 'Shine' and a prayer at the end.
Following the assembly they made bookings with us for November and December.
A Great start in another school Praise the Lord.
