The new year saw the "Walking with Jesus" introduction and refresher workshop for teachers taking place on the 7th of January. It was held at CHIJ Kellock Primary. The overall aim of the programme is for the Bible to come alive for children and that they recognise Jesus speaking to them in his word.
Four speakers, Msgr Eugene Vaz, Ms Wendy Louis, Trevor Nerva and John Chan presented the topics.
These were:
- The role of scripture, silence, music, prayer, experiential learning & memory.
- How Scripture is used in the programme.
- The objectives, methodologies, scope and sequence of WWJ.
- How RE in primary school complements the parish catechism classes.
- Learning styles and multiple intelligences.
- Word as sacrament - spirituality of the child.
- Music in WWJ programme
- Group work and sharing
