Day 11 by Mrs Farmer
Fri 28th October - 7.18pm by Caroline Farmer
Hello all,
Words cannot describe how truly beautiful PPI was this morning. The children's voices singing as one praising God, so full of faith and hope, so joyous. We clapped danced and jumped together, the children wanted more and more. Mr Edward led the singing and Mr Azzaro spoke about the wise man building his house upon the rock. Our boys performed a drama to link to with the wise man bible reading.
Back at school oneoff our fundraising events was a where's wally day where the staff donned fancy dress for the day and were found by the Wally watching kids at break. We brought with us 26 of the red and white bobble hats so this afternoon standard 1 were given the hats to wear, to their sheer delight. Never have I seen children be so happy and grateful, they said it felt like Christmas and started to sing happy birthday to Jesus. The teacher tried to close the singing but the children wanted to continue to celebrate. Then a little boy asked if he could pray, and he thanked god for the visitors to his school. These children are between ages 5 and 7.
Looking forward to safari tomorrow but know that it is near the end of the trip and having to say goodbye to everyone at victory school.

Your story about the Where's Wally hats was very touching. The simple gift of a hat bringing so much joy tha the children burst into song and then a little boy praying....to thank God for the visitors. Amazing. I'm sure we could all take a leaf out of their book occasionally.
