Polystyrene Block Printing!
This half term in art we have been learning about different methods of creating prints. We learnt about William Morris and then created our own water inspired print using quarter of a polystyrene pizza base! First we had to draw our design before colouring it in with felt tip pen. Then we sprayed the printing block with water and used it to print! We had to repeat the process 4 times to create a complete circle.
Here are some of our artworks. We are very proud of them!

Forest Church
Dear Friends,
It’s Forest Church this coming Sunday (14th April). We are delighted to be meeting at Preston Montford Field Studies Centre, and Sue Dancey (who used to run the centre) will be leading various ecological activities for us. We’ll meet at 3pm, and then have a short service at about 4pm. Please do bring along a packed tea if you’d like to. Because the site is vast, we will stay in one part for the activities, but Sue or Arran (who runs the centre now) are very happy to give a tour after 4.15pm for those who are interested.
Do dress for the weather! There are indoor spaces if needed, but we are hoping to be outside for the whole afternoon.
Directions to Preston Montford (SY4 1DX):
From the Holyhead Road heading out from town, take a right turn onto the B4473 just before Montford Bridge (this road eventually joins the Welshpool Road). The field centre is along this road, on the right-hand side- clearly marked. Go down the drive towards the big white house, and there is plenty of parking.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Blessings,
Hannah x

World Water Day
On Friday 22nd March all the classes took part in World Water Day.
The environmental warriors led a worship about why we need to help save water, followed by a range of activities in class looking at ways to save water at school and at home. Some classes created posters, here is an example of a poster.
Easter Prayer
O Lord,
How amazing is your love,
A love that overcomes, endures and redeems.
How astounding is your life,
A life that sustains, heals and creates.
How awesome is your hope,
A hope that promises, restores and inspires.
How absorbing is your truth,
A truth that releases, changes and rebuilds.
How we worship you, as we remember the moment when your love conquered.
When out of the cave of sorrow Jesus arose to release forgiveness to the world.
And each time we encounter this resurrection day we are again lifted to an eternal place.
Our sin, brokenness and darkness fall away and your light and peace flood our lives.
How we thank you for this incredible celebration we call Easter.
Amen.
