Windermere Juniors

This morning we made our way up the lake to Windermere Juniors. At times we could have been in the lake as there was so much water about, with the road flooded in several places. Today was a special Christmas assembly for the children. We took Gary with us, although Gary has been before the new year 3 children had never seen him. We also sang 'So many ways to Praise the Lord' which was new to them. Gary came out and said hello to everyone and I mean everyone (as Gary does from time to time) however he was far too busy to talk as he was doing his Christmas list, but he was also doing one to help out his mum as well. His list mainly had toys on it, his mums list did have food on it which included chocolate x 100. Being too busy as he was Gary didn't want to talk to Sarah or the children - he had too much to do. Sarah pointed out that it was not really what Christmas was about and showed him and the children a short video. The video started off with a nativity and then that picture was blotted out by other things can are to do with Christmas but are not really that important. Finally the video ended with the nativity scene again. Sarah explained to Gary about Christmas, he got so excited about it that he threw his list away and went off to tell Mark all about it. Mark came back and talked to the children about Christmas then we sang 'Great Big God' said a prayer with them and finished with 'Shine'
