Thank you Sharon.

The Holy Spirit

Room 1 have been learning about the Holy Spirit.

Today we did I an experiment to show that God is three persons in one.

We used milk and three different food colourings, 1 for the Father, 1 for the Son - Jesus and one for the Holy Spirit.  We then added a drop of dish washing liquid to the food colouring, this is where the magic started.

Come and have a look at our results.

Today we had a visit by two Dannevirke Firefighters - Michael Green and Cameron Tait.

They came to talk to us about the Firefighters Stair Challenge an amazing fundraiser they attend to raise money for the Leukaemia Foundation.
