Start of the Year Church Service

It was the Start of Year Service today, led by Year 6. Being the Olympic year, we couldn't help calling it the Opening Ceremony
This was the cover of the Order of Service booklet









There was a dramatic entrance to the song "we could be heroes", complete with huge flag, and of course, the torch

In the service, children sang their favourite hymns:
One more step
How great is our God
Be bold
This little light of mine

The children talked about being nervous coming back to a new school year, new class and so on. They found out that even the teachers feel like that - here's a pupil playing the role of teacher (below)
























 







A lovely service, and a great start to the new year.
As Year 6 said:
Let's all try to be like our Olympic heroes
