A New Teacher for Y5

We were all sad to say goodbye to Mr Cluto, at Holy Trinity School, and for some time, his Y5 class seemed to be wearing out supply teachers as quickly as they could arrive. The situation caused stress to parents, staff, governors and church members alike – a great class was becoming unsettled and failing to reach their potential. Praise God, then, for the recent appointment of Miss Kenton who is finding her feet quickly and getting the class back into shape.

God will send a strong message

Sunday 1st March
“At times God will send us a strong sense of his presence, a desire to be with him, the ability to withstand temptations with ease. But he never allows this state of affairs to lost long. Sooner or later He withdraws, if not in fact, at least from their conscious experience, all those supports and incentives. He leaves the creature to stand up on its own legs—to carry out from the will alone duties which have lost all relish. It is during such trough periods, much more than during the peak periods, that it is growing into the sort of creature He wants it to be” C.S. Lewis
