Today we had a visit from our Paths coach Lisa. She completed a fun Paths lesson with us all about the feeling of being lonely. We talked about a time when we had felt lonely and how we can help others when they are lonely.

During RE, Year 2 confessed something which they were sorry for, we wrote these confessions on hearts and washed them in water. The water washed away our sins, as the Holy water washes away sins during Baptism. We wrote prayers to God asking for forgiveness ❤️
