Good Morning Brown Clee!
Well here we are at the end of another week of remote learning. It has been 6 weeks now since we have been together, including the Easter holidays, and we are really missing everyone. The photos are wonderful and really help everyone to stay in touch and keep us together ‘virtually’, so again, thank you so much for sending them in!
When we return to school after the 6 week summer holiday, we always comment on how much everyone has changed; you are all taller (sometimes a lot taller!) and also more grown up and mature. So we can’t help wonder how much we will have changed when we do finally get back together. Being together is so important – and it is something that Captain (or rather Colonel!) Tom has sung about recently with Michael Ball.
We learnt about the amazing Captain Tom previously, and his amazing fundraising feat – he has now surpassed £30 MILLION!! Well yesterday he celebrated his 100th birthday, and as well as that, his song has reached number one in the charts – it’s called “You’ll Never Walk Alone” – and that is true for everyone – as we are always together, as a team, even if we can’t see each other. In fact Colonel Tom says himself “The sun will shine again, and we will never walk alone!” There are 2 videos to watch and listen to –

YOU’LL NEVER WALK ALONE by Captain Tom and Michael Ball
We have another birthday to celebrate today – as Benji is a fantastic 5 years old today! Congratuations Benji – we hope you have a great day!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BENJI
Prayer of the Day
Dear God,
We thank you for our friends and for the happy times that we share with them.
Help us to be a good friend to them.
During this time when we can’t play with our friends,
Please help us to find creative ways to keep in touch.
Thank you that you are our friend and will be with us always.
Thank you that you are always with us and never leave us on our own.
Help us to keep our eyes wide open to notice when other people need a friend to care for them.
Amen.
