Car Rides With Little Miss Gigi

"After breakfast, Thomas watched sulkily as his brother wheeled his bike out of the garage next to Mikey’s. “You can come next time, okay?” Said Josh. Thomas nodded and watched as they rode down the hill, waving goodbye. ‘I can’t wait till I’m bigger’ Thomas thought to himself. Just then he heard a noise behind him. It was Dad sliding under the car. “Whatcha doing Dad?” Thomas asked. “Got to change the oil” Dad replied. “It’s well overdue.” “Thomas lay down on his belly to have a look. His Dad had a spanner in one hand and seemed to be trying to loosen something with great effort. “This…thing….is so….TIGHT!” Dad grunted. “I can help!” Thomas said. “Aw thanks bud” said Dad “but your muscles are a bit too small for this job. Why don’t you go play outside?” he suggested. “Ok…” Thomas sighed. Tune in to listen to the whole story.

“Look Mother, is that Jesus?” a little boy called Nathan cried in horror. His mother rushed to his side, and, looking to where he pointed, she saw Jesus walking along a path, carrying a rugged cross, surrounded by a big group of people. Mother gasped. She grabbed Nathan’s hand and together they ran to see the sight. It was Friday afternoon, and many people had gathered outside the city of Jerusalem to see the crucifixion. "Nathan and his mother stopped behind a group of weeping women, and watched the scene with grief. Nathan saw Jesus fall to the ground under the weight of the heavy cross, and then he turned to see the Roman guards grab a man from out of the crowd and order him to carry Jesus’ cross for Him. Jesus stumbled along behind the man who carried His cross, and Nathan could see the deep red marks on Jesus’ back from where He had been whipped. He saw the crown of thorns that dug into His head, which caused blood to flow down His face, and He had bruises all over his arms and legs. What on earth has ha

"Aidan had walked past giraffes and zebras, all the way to the meerkat enclosure. But there was no sight of any tigers. By now he was determined to go back to his family, certain the show would have finished.  I am going to be in such big trouble! Aidan thought as he ran up the road he came - or so he thought. Everything looked different than he remembered. There was now water where there had been trees before. I’m sure this is the way I came, he thought to himself. He stopped as he rounded a corner, tears welling up in his eyes. I’m lost! He looked around to ask someone for help, but the road was empty.  Maybe the zoo is closing, Aidan thought miserably, Maybe…my family have gone home without me. Aidan buried his face in his hands and wept." Tune in to listen to the whole story.

"Captain Naaman soon heard about what Little Maid had said. He agreed with her idea and soon he and his men got into their horse’s chariots and travelled straight to Elisha’s house in the far away land of Samaria. Upon arrival, Elisha’s servant opened the door with a message from the prophet Elisha. ‘The Captain is to go and wash in the Jordan River seven times and then he will be made well again.’ When he heard this instruction, Captain Naaman was outraged. Why should I have to wash in the dirty Jordan River? He thought angrily. The rivers of Damascus are far cleaner than all the waters in Israel. Why can’t I wash in them to be healed?   He began to walk away in frustration, but his loyal servants stopped him. ‘Sir, if the prophet had asked you to do something hard, you were prepared to do it. So why can’t you wash in the Jordan River, when it is so easy to do?’ " Today on the story we share the story of Naaman when God heals him from leprosy.  Tune in to listen to the whole story.

(The bible story Joshua and the walls of Jericho) "Joshua listened carefully to what God was telling him. He didn’t want to get anything wrong! Then he repeated it to the Israelites. And so, on the very first day of the week, the Israelites set out to march around the city. The bad people who lived in the city of Jericho thought the Israelites were crazy. Joshua knew that the Israelites wanted to say things back to the people of Jericho, but he told them to stay quiet. “Just keep walking!” he said. “The time will come when you can finally make your voice heard.” And so, the Israelites continued their long march around the city walls. When they had finished their lap, they went back to their camp. The next day, they were up and walking again. And the next day. And the day after that, too. Now the people of Jericho were really confused. “What are they doing?” they wondered...." Today on the story we share the story of Joshua and the walls of Jericho.

"Over the first week of having their new dog, Danielle and her family were pleased to see the two dogs getting along well. But one day during the second week of Bella’s arrival, they noticed a problem. “Jack,” Josiah called from the couch. Jack came running, his furry ears flapping as he leapt onto the couch next to Josiah. The next moment, Bella also came running, her nails clicking on the tiles. She jumped onto the couch and tried to get between Josiah and Jack. Josiah laughed. “Mum, guess what! I called for Jack and Bella comes running too! I don’t think she likes me getting time with just Jack; she wants to have the attention as well.” At first, they thought nothing of it, but they started to question Bella’s behaviour when she would try to push Jack out of the way while he was being patted, or when he was eating his food."

“Then King Nebuchadnezzar leaped to his feet in amazement and asked his advisers, “Weren’t there three men that we tied up and threw into the fire?” They replied, “Certainly, your Majesty.”  He said, “Look!

"David swung up and onto his donkey and rode all the way to the battle grounds. He spotted his brothers and approached them. As he was talking to them, he heard a voice shouting curses at the Israelite army. It was the Philistine’s champion warrior named Goliath. He was far taller than David and the rest of the mighty Israelite soldiers. He had a big, glistening sword and the ground seemed to shake wherever he walked. The Israelites trembled with fear as they heard Goliath’s voice. David soon learned that Goliath had been standing in the valley, cursing the Israelites and their God for forty days now. ‘Send one man to fight me. If he defeats and kills me, we will be your slaves. But if I defeat and kill him, you will be our slaves!’ his voice shook the ground as he spoke. David was angry that Goliath would say such terrible things about God and His people, and he was determined not to let God be dishonoured. ‘Who is this Philistine, that he thinks he can defy the army of the living God?’ David exclaimed."

Sienna and her friends all gave her a loud good morning. “Today you will get to pet and feed the animals and I will introduce you to all the animals we have here.” Josie said pointing to all the land around her. Sienna, Liam and Jorja and all of 3J clapped and cheered. It was going to be a very fun day! The tour began and the first place they stopped was to see Marvin and Archie the miniature pigs. One was a black pig with brown high lights and the other was blond and brown. “These pigs fight over the food.” Josie said, “That’s why they are to be fed apart.” After they gobbled every single piece they continued their journey and went to meet Rasha, the miniature horse who loves his carrots and a good pat “Let’s keep moving children.” Mr Jones called out, “Sienna, Jorja and Liam don’t stay behind please.” Sienna and her friends reluctantly left the horse and ran to catch up with the rest of 3J. _______________________________________ Today story is about Sienna who goes to an exciting excursion with her class 3
