Gospel Reading - Luke 16:19-31
Jesus tells the parable of the reversal of fortunes between the rich man and the poor man, Lazarus.
Family Connection
Talk with your children about some of the things that they have that can be shared with others. Ask your children to describe a time when they had to share something that they had. Ask if this was easy or difficult and why. Talk about some of the ways in which your family shares your possessions. Read together Sunday's Gospel, Luke 16:19-31. Consider together some reasons why the rich man may not have shared his riches with the poor man, Lazarus. Identify some reasons why we might share our possessions with others. Make a commitment as a family to do something this week in which you will choose to share your possessions with someone in need.

Kindergarten - Dog Safety
This term in Kinder Blue we have been learning about dog safety. We have explored how to identify if a dog is feeling angry, scared or happy by noticing changes in its body language. We have also learned that before patting a new dog for the first time, there are 3 people we have to ask first: our grown-up, the dog's owner and then the dog itself. Mrs Gretton brought Eli to visit so we could practice what we have been learning. We were so excited to share our understanding about how we can keep ourselves safe around dogs.
Uniform Shop School Holidays
