Year 3 Welcome Reverend Peter for an Inspiring Lesson on Discipleship

This week, Year 3 were delighted to welcome Reverend Peter into school for a special lesson all about what it means to be a disciple of Jesus. His visit offered the children a unique opportunity to explore faith, influence, and personal values in a meaningful and engaging way.

Reverend Peter began by sharing his own personal journey, explaining how he became a follower of Jesus and what being a disciple means in his everyday life. The children listened with great interest as he talked about the people, experiences, and moments that shaped his path.

To deepen their understanding, Reverend Peter read from the Bible—Matthew 4:19, the well‑known verse where Jesus says, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Together, they explored what this phrase means and how it teaches Christians to inspire, guide, and encourage others through kindness, compassion, and example.

Following the reading, the children reflected on the important people in their own lives—those who influence them, inspire them, and whom they choose to follow. They wrote down these names and discussed the reasons behind their choices. This simple activity led to some deep, thoughtful conversations and many insightful questions from the children.

A huge thank you to Reverend Peter for his time, openness, and thoughtful teaching. We look forward to welcoming him back for another visit soon.
