Mission: to ask for help for myself or others

In today’s reading, we heard the story of the paralysed man. He went to see Jesus, but couldn’t get near him as he was on a stretcher and there were so many people in the house. His friends recognised that he needed help and lifted him onto the roof and made a hole in it so that they could lower their friend in to see Jesus. Jesus healed the man and he was able to walk out of the house. If his friends had not helped him, he would not have been healed.

In our lives, we need to recognise when people need help and to step in with that help. Sometimes, it takes more than just us in order to give the help needed – just as many hands were needed to lift the paralysed man onto the roof. In these cases, we need to be ready to ask others to help us.

Mrs Beer gave us the example of our Lent fundraising for CAFOD. A single £1 donation on its own makes little difference, but when combined with £1s from others, it can change lives. We raised £398 for CAFOD World Gifts this Lent. Among other things, this money will teach 3 children to read, provide 5 goats for milk and cheese and 3 vegetable gardens to provide a sustainable food source.

This week’s mission is to know when to ask for help for others and ourselves, whether in the classroom, playground or at home.

Let us know in the comments below how you have achieved this week’s mission.

    The children in Year 4 have asked their parents for help to tie a siblings shoe lace. They have asked for help to find their ball in the park. They have also helped friends out by getting them to stop arguing and helped their parents when their little brother or sister has got lost.

    In year 5, we have been discussing ways in which we can ask for help for ourselves or others. We discussed that we could ask our teachers when we need help. We also discussed that we could ask our family to help us with anything we become stuck with. We should never be afraid to ask for help if we need it.

    This week Year 3 have asked for help with their work in class if they are stuck. We have asked the teacher and friends for help. We have asked for help finding missing equipment and for a new one if we couldn’t find it. Hanna helped Mia this week when she was getting ready for PE as it was taking her a long time. Aoife asked for help when her leg was bleeding. Isla S helped Amaka at playtime. Year 3 have been confident at asking for help and giving help.

    Year Two have been busy helping each other learn their lines and and prayers for our Easter liturgy this week. The children have been helping their parents at home. They have also helped settle a new member of Year Two into school life at St. Clare’s.

    Foundation Stage have asked for help from the adults in school that look after them . They have asked for help with their work or with equipment in the classroom. They ask Mrs White to help them cut up their dinner at lunchtime. if it is tricky. They are learning to ask each other for help and work together to support each other. They ask their mums and dads for help at home when they are doing their homework or struggling to do something on their own.

    In Year 6 we discussed how we can grow and learn through asking for help. We ask our friends and teachers for help in school, our parents to help at home, and sometimes we are called upon to help others. We have all asked for help at some point during the week and said how happy we felt that there is always someone willing to help us no matter what.
