Being ... Being loved ... giving love

It's been a great start to the new term. The first message for the first week or so was letting go of the past and pressing on to what lies ahead which included memory games and a quiz.

About 45 junior school children attended each day - well done Mike, Alison and the team!

The Autumn term has now started my first theme has been 'The Golden Rule'. My studies indicate that all the major religions and many others support what has been summed up as this 'Golden rule'.

Summer 2011 FIZZBANG goes with a BANG!

on Sat, 04/06/2011 - 7:31pm

What a great time we had at FIZZBANG this time studying the life of Joseph over 4 days at Burniston Church. We had on average 18 children. We had the random hedgehog, the random dice, the random balloon and our gtreat intro song:

It’s a brand new day at the Fizzbang Club
Give your nose a tickle and your belly a rub
Rubbit Rubbit Rubbit
Rubbit Rubbit Rubbit
Even though it’s raining and their aint no sun
We’re here to have a lot of FUN!
Fun Fun Fun
Fun Fun Fun
So clap your hands
Stamp your feet
Raise your hands
To the Fizzbang beat
