Friendship

Last half term we looked at friendship as our Christian value. 

This included creating a potion of how to be a good friend, accepting friends make mistakes and learning how to forgive one another, welcoming new friends and many more elements of friendship. 

We heard biblical stories including Jesus and the paralysed man. We discussed what good friends this paralysed man had as they carried him to Jesus so that he could be cured.

We also looked at not being an honest friend and how if we tell lies we can get in to a bit of a mess!

Below is a picture of our class. We listened to a story and each time a lie was told we passed a ball of string around. What a mess we ended up in! We realised that telling lies may be easy but un doing them and telling the truth can be tricky. 





During collective worship we also looked at sharing between friends. We heard a story about a wonderful, bright coloured fish and how when it didn't share it had a sad, lonely life. However once the fish shared with the other fish it had a much happier life. We looked at applying to this our everyday lives, at school and at home.
