Victoria news
We had so much fun with our KAPLA workshop on Wednesday, where all the children got to build different things as a class. It was lovely to share with the parents and even the demolishing of the build was exciting (if a little sad after all that hard work). All the children were brilliant at listening to the instructions and were impressed with what they made.
The children were also shown our new books for the library, a series of true-life stories about individuals from the ‘Do Great Things for God’ collection. I read to them the story of Gladys Alyward, a girl who had big dreams of going to China but had not passed the exam to be a missionary. The children learnt about how she was so determined to go that she saved all her money and found lots of different ways to get to China. Once she was there, she helped the local children, especially during the war where she saved 100 orphans, taking them to safety. The children were looking forward to taking out the new books and finding out more about the different people.
