Kindergarten had a teddy bear picnic of blueberry muffins, bearpaw cookies and chocolate logs. They tasted some 'honey. It was sweet. They learned about real and pretend bears. Everyone brought their favourite teddies and had them measured. They made ’a graph of the size of teddies. In Grade 1 they are learning time and made clocks with a buddy. In Grade 2 they are learning patterns in math. They are also learning about fairy tales and made Three Little Pig puppets and houses to go with them. The Grade 3 pupils changed the powder in the rock tumbler. In just two more weeks their rocks will be done. They are doing a project on the difference of living in the city and living in the country. Mr. Sanders is reading them Murder on the Canadian. Grade 4 is busy working on weight in math and learning the provinces and capitals of Canada for a test. This week has also been busy for Grade 5/6. They have finished their ancient civilization project and have some pretty amazing models and projects completed. In French they are trying different kinds of pizza and in math are making 3-D shapes. In French Grade 6/7 started a project on face features. The Grade 6 novel study is The Indian in the Cupboard, while the Grade 7s is The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Greeting at Londesboro United Church on Sunday were Jane and Cheryl Hoggart. Tom and Marjorie Duizer were the ushers. From Rev. Paul Ross's story bag this week came a crown and kingly robe. The message was that a king has authority as do teachers, parents, and policemen. Children also have a King in heaven who wants them to love others, treat others kindly and fairly. Scripture readings were Ezekiel 34: 11-16; Ephesians 1: 15-23; and Matt 25: 31-45. The Shepherd King was the title of Rev. Ross’s message. As a shepherd gathers together and cares for all his sheep, God will Took after his people. Christians expect their God to seek out the lost, save the endangered, and save the faithful. When people serve the Shepherd King their lives will be changed so they put faith into action, he said. Then it becomes their responsibility to care for the lost, the homeless, the sick and the troubled in the world.
