Welcome to Year 5’s Class Worship

What if this autumn you could be a better friend?

There’s a chill feeling to the morning air…

The shadows longer grow…

The ripened fruits hang on the tree, they make the branches low…

Speckled sunlight shivers through ever-thinning leaves, its rays dispersed and scattered by the silver shimmering trees….

The tubs and hanging baskets, which were once fresh and bright, look tired brown and lanky a wistful withering sight…

Excited birdsong signals change. Some gather for their flight. They know that autumn’s on the way, for longer grows the night…

The leaves will shortly start to fall when once their glory’s over…

The hay is safely gathered in, in barn and shed and store…

The hedgehog eats its winter fill before it hides away…

All creatures wear their winter coats to keep the cold at bay…

These signs and more are very clear in the message they convey. That summertime is almost past and autumn’s on its way…

Brown leaves are caused when…

How can we turn over a new leaf this autumn and be better

friends?

Share each other's troubles and problems, and in this way obey the law

of Christ.•Galations 6:2 

There are friends who hurt each other, but a real friend sticks closer than a

brother or sister.•Proverbs 19:24

There hides unseenA conker smooth and shiny brown
