Reception have been learning all about lighthouses and how they help keep ships safe from the rocks. Just like lighthouses, they know that God keeps us safe too! They also explored our school Light Values - Love, Inclusivity, Goodness, Hope, and Truth - and discovered how important the lighthouse is as a symbol in our school. To make it even more fun, they went on a lighthouse hunt around school and found so many! Keep an eye out next time you're here – you might spot a few yourself! ... See MoreSee Less
