Sir John Barrow School

This afternoon Sarah and I went down to Sir John Barrow School to take an assembly for the infants.  We introduced ourselves and asked if anyone had seen us before and some of the children had from last years holiday club.  We introduced them to Great Big God which some of them already knew before we asked two boys out to have a go at building a tall tower from blocks.  I had already started the tower and I told the boys to work together which they didn't do at first as they both started their own towers.  They eventually got the idea and built a rather tall tower which eventually fell down.  Sarah then went on to talk about the disciples of Jesus and how they sometimes didn't work together and sometimes they argued about stuff.  Sarah asked two other children to read a short script about the disciples falling out when they wanted to know who was the greatest.  Sarah went on to say how important it is for us all to get along and to try and work out our differences because that is what Jesus would want us to do.  I then said a short prayer and we finished with Shine.
