National Teacher Assistants' Day National Teacher Assistants' Day
16/09/2020Behind every great teacher is a great teaching assistant!!!!!!
Let's celebrate the unsung heroes of learning - our teaching assistants and other learning support staff!
Make their day by saying thank you and giving them a smile!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY (available here as a 1:24 video)
Let's spend a few moments thinking about those who walk alongside us as we learn.
Let's give thanks for their patience,
for their consistency,
for their compassion,
for not giving up on us,
for believing in us,
for recognising our potential,
for the time they put in,
for the efforts they make,
for their encouragement,
for their advice,
for their sheer humanity which models for ushow wonderful every human being is.
Loving God, we place our Teaching Assistants
and all who support us in your hands.
Help us to show we appreciate them
by what we say and what we do.
St. Julie: pray for us, protect us and bless us.

Rosh Hashanah - Jewish New Year Rosh Hashanah - Jewish New Year
18/09/2020 – 20/09/2020Judaism proclaims Rosh Hashanah as the birthday of the world – sages teach that the first Rosh Hashanah was the sixth day of Creation, when God Created man and woman.
Here's an explanation of it in 3:01!
This is a bit less formal but instructive nonetheless (2:38) - you'll probably recognise the tune.
A PRAYER OF RENEWAL
God of Creation - we give thanks for this celebration of a new year.
Help us to start afresh, renewing our efforts to be good stewards of Creation,
seeking peace in all areas of life,
and reaching out compassionately to those who suffer.
We ask this in your holy name. AMEN
