Advent Service at Worcester Cathedral



Our service started with listening to a hymn from the King's Senior School Choir; they were amazing!  The service was led by Oswald House and the Bishop of Dudley.  They did a brilliant job; it was well organised.



There were about 700 people at the service and the cathedral was full.  We sang three hymns:

  • Immortal, invisible,
  • On Jordan's Bank
  • Long ago, prophets new.

The second piece from the Senior School choir was, in our opinion, better than the first.

We enjoy taking part in the whole school cathedral services; they are often interesting and do have a feeling of togetherness. We are looking forward to being part of the congregation when we are in the Senior School.

Resilience

Resilience



Recently we’ve been talking about the word resilience and what it means too you. We talked about it as a class and then we watched some videos. The first one was about not giving up, the second one was about if you do something wrong it’s not the end of the world, so don’t worry, the third video was about flexibility and how you can help others. The last video was about different ways you can be resilient. Here are some examples:
Never give up.
Just keep going if you make a mistake.
Be flexible like bamboo.
Think as each task as dawn not dusk.
Positive Mental Attitude.
Be able to take and give advice to others.

Two phrases often used are:
“Come on, laugh it off!”
“Don’t let this spoil everything!”

So come on, be RESILIENT!


Science

                              Our Science Experiments




We started the term with a science experiment to find out if all substances dissolve in water. We found out that most substances used didn’t dissolve. Copper sulphate and sodium carbonate reached saturation point. Aluminium pottasiate, sand, sugar and salt didn’t dissolve.
  Our favourite experiment was the Bunsen burner. The hottest flame they produce was the roaring blue flame, it can reach temperatures of 700 degrees Celsius. The coolest flame is the orange flame reaching 300 degrees Celsius. The blue flame is 500 degrees Celsius.
