Seeing Creation Up Close in Prep

Recently, the students enjoyed a peaceful nature walk, taking time to slow down and appreciate the beauty of creation. We paused together, closed our eyes and used our senses to notice the world around us – the gentle sounds of birds, rustling leaves, fresh outdoor scents and the warm sunshine on our faces. It was a wonderful opportunity for students to recognise the small wonders in our environment while reflecting on the amazing things God created. The children then connected their discoveries to the story of Genesis 1:1–31.

This week, we also had a delightful time observing our silkworms and the incredible transformation they’ve made – from tiny eggs, to delicate little worms and now to plump, white caterpillars with busy little legs. We were captivated watching them explore the mulberry leaves, crawl with determination and even lift their heads as if curiously checking in on us. They have brought so much joy to our classroom and have been an absolute delight to watch.
