Monday!

Well, what a day it has been!  The children have learned what it takes to be an astronaut, and have started to get used to the routine of life in the Space Academy.

We've had group training in the Action Stations and conducted research in our Lunar Landings.  The Cosmic Cafe has done a roaring trade, and the universe has resounded to the sweet tones of children's voices as they have learned the academy theme song.

Together, we've met Buzz Brain the astronaut and begun to create our very own planet mobile to decorate our group areas. We've also made some cool fruity magnets.

Our research was in the Bible - the book of Daniel.  We learned that, though they were in a strange land amongst people who did not believe in their God, Daniel and his three friends were faithful to God.  They obeyed God's law even though that meant they were different to everyone else around them.  And God was faithful to them too - he helped them.
