Christmas Carol Service - written by Lucy Gilbert 6NB
On Tuesday 13th December Year 5 and Year 6 went to St Mary's church to sing Christmas carols. The first song we sang when we got there was Silent Night and we sang the first verse in German . We then we listened to a reading from Charles Dickens’ The Christmas Carol read by Max and then a poem written by Lyla on generosity. Next we sung Wind Though the Olive Trees. VoxRox sung a beautiful version of Gaudette which means ‘rejoice’ in Latin. Samuel then read another reading from The Christmas Carol with the themes of forgiveness and redemption and Niamh read a poem she had written with Mr Wildman about forgiveness. We really enjoyed the service and all the carols that we sung. It was beautiful near-end to term. We are singing at Carleen Nursing home Wednesday too!
And here is Niamh and Lyla-Rose's poem...
WHERE IS FORGIVENESS FOUND
Forgiveness is found in the relief on Noah’s face as he gazes upon god’s gift of a rainbow
Forgiveness is found deep within gods wise words
Forgiveness is found in the reprieve of a condemned prisoner as the judge grants him a pardon
Forgiveness is found in the truth of a young child telling their mum their mistakes
Forgiveness is found in the burying of the hatchet before the passing of the peace pipe
Forgiveness is found in the brain of a being and the realization of human mistakes
Forgiveness is when your anger leaves to make room for love
Forgiveness is found in 5 letters
T.R.U.S.T.
