Our 2022/2023 Worship Wonders
We are a group of pupils, representing all the children in school, who meet together to discuss, help plan and evaluate worship in our school and services at The Church of The Resurrection which we attend. We also think about the Dawn Children's Centre in Uganda who we have made links with. We met the manager of the school. She is called Sarah Ampumuza. We are all meeting to write letters to the children and raise money to help them because we want to be more like Jesus and we want to live by Christian Values in our school.
