Mission Together

Mission Together (Missio) is one of the charities that we support in school. They have produced Holy Week packs and activity sheets which include simple tasks, questions, prayers and adapted scriptures. They’ll help children learn, reflect, and stand in solidarity with children around the world already living in hardship. At times like this, we encourage children to remember that we are all part of God’s family.
