We have French penpals!

22nd Jan 2026
We were really excited to receive a few emails and Christmas cards in the mail from our new penpals in a primary school in Nice.  They have so many hobbies that are similar to ours, and are the same age as us.  We hope to write back to them in a few days time.  

Today it was so rainy that we had a bit of time for games.  We had fun playing our new Xs & Os tic tac toe game with rocks we had painted and boards.

Yesterday morning we had a lovely deep chat about who God is, what he might look like and the importance of believing in God.  We made a class collage with our pictures of God.  Some of us think he looks like a great ball of light, others think he is more like a human in appearance.  All of our ideas were really interesting to listen to!
