painted our glasses. Next some of us needed to add extra colour to
their planets. Then we did a bit of our workbooks before doing our
crown then we had lunch.
We had a service all about space because that has been our theem all
week. First we sang a song called, “He’s got the whole world”. I loved
singing it. After that each group took a turn to a little presentatin.
Next we said lots of prayers to God. Then we put some incens into the
font to symbulys our prayers rising to God. Finnily we sang another
song but this time it was much more fun because it had actions. Lastly
we went home!

We had a barbeque with a disco. At the disco there was little cars to
ride on. I had a go on one and it was brilliant! After that we had a
game where everyone dances and when the music stops you have to sit
down. The last one to sit down is out. After the game we have our
barbaque. We had bergers and sosauges which where very yummy! Finally
we had a game of Limbo and we all won a balloon. Lastly we went home.
