This morning we wrapped up our learning on The Parable of Talents. God has given each of us special gifts, and we are called to use and grow them faithfully. Through discussions, and group activities, the children reflected on what their own “talents” might be—whether that’s being kind, helping others, being creative, or skills like sports and learning. We encouraged them to understand that every gift, big or small, has value and purpose.

With our younger group, this led to some thoughtful and engaging conversations—especially around sporting abilities. One question that stood out was, “How can you use footy or rugby for God?” This created a great opportunity for the children to think more deeply. As a group, they brainstormed ways such as teaching and encouraging others, showing teamwork and good sportsmanship, training hard and taking care of their bodies, praying for strength and protection, and remembering to thank God after each game. They also discussed how praising God isn’t just for winning—but something we can do in both victory and loss.

This naturally led us into our second theme: joy in faithful stewardship. The children learned that a good servant takes joy in using what they’ve been given in a way that honours God. We talked about how our attitude matters—not just what we do, but how and why we do it. Are we using our gifts to bring glory to God? Are we grateful for what we have?

It has been a meaningful and encouraging topic, helping the children see how their everyday actions, interests, and abilities can all be used as part of their faith journey.

On Sunday, we wrapped up our learning on the story of the Ten Virgins with a short revision before completing our end-of-topic test. This provided a meaningful opportunity for the children to pause, reflect, and consolidate their understanding of the story and its key messages.

Throughout this learning, the children have been exploring what it means to be wise and prepared. We discussed how the wise virgins were ready and watchful, and how we can apply this in our own lives by listening to God, making good choices, and being ready in our hearts each day.

The end-of-topic test was not only a way to revisit what we’ve learned, but also a chance for the children to share their thoughts, express their understanding, and celebrate their growth. We are so proud of the way they have engaged with this story and the thoughtful connections they are beginning to make.

We have been learning about the story of the Ten Virgins and how it teaches us to be wise and prepared (Matthew 25:1–13). This helps children understand that, like the wise virgins, we can be ready for whatever life brings.

We’ve been exploring how to prepare our hearts by listening to the Lord and doing our best to follow Him. Through engaging activities, the children have been learning two key ideas: to Watch and Pray and to be filled with the “oil” (the Holy Spirit).

“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.” – Matthew 25:13

Some simple questions to reflect on this week:
Are we prepared? Do we have enough oil in our lamp? Is there more we can do while we wait?

Our 3yrs and under class continue to build on the story of Noah’s Ark through story time and hands-on building activities. Inspired by the illustrations in the book, the children explored their creativity by building animals such as a giraffe, a panda, and a dog.

As they build alongside one another, they are practicing sharing, taking turns, and helping their friends. In these small but meaningful moments, they are learning to show kindness and care for others—just as Jesus teaches us to love one another.

“Be kind and compassionate to one another.” – Ephesians 4:32

Through our new story this morning, “The Ten Lepers,” we were reminded that everything we have is a gift from God. The story tells us of ten lepers who were healed, yet only one returned to give thanks and give glory to God.

It encourages us to reflect on the importance of gratitude and remembering to thank God for all that He provides.

1 Thessalonians 5:18
“In everything give thanks.”

Last Sunday, our KIA ministry held a Sunday School test to conclude our topic on “The Marriage of the king’s son.”

The purpose of the test is not only to check our knowledge, but also to help us understand the lesson from the parable and encourage us to practice Christian values such as obedience, humility, and readiness to follow God’s invitation.

By studying and reflecting on this lesson, we are reminded to live according to God’s teachings and to be prepared to follow Him in our daily lives.

Join us this Sunday at 9am as we journey into another exciting story in the Bible! 📖✨

For the month of February in Sunday School, we learned about The Marriage of the King’s Son — a beautiful reminder that God invites us to share in the joy of His kingdom. It’s not something we earn by being “good enough.” It’s not a demand — it’s an invitation. And the choice to accept or reject it is ours.

We talked about how being kind, hardworking, and “good” are wonderful qualities — but they aren’t what prepare us for Jesus’ wedding feast. We can’t dress ourselves in our own goodness. Instead, we are invited to “put on” God’s righteousness — a gift He freely gives through Jesus.

“Many are invited, but few are chosen.” – Matthew 22:14 ✨

How are we responding to His invitation today? May we choose to come with humble and open hearts.

See you Sunday at 9am!

As we close out the month of June, we focused on a vital lesson – Prayer. Through the theme "In this manner, pray," the children discovered that prayer is about more than just words; it's a way to express praise, offer thanksgiving, seek forgiveness, and ask God for the things we truly need. In our second theme, "God gives us what we need," the children learned the importance of perseverance in prayer, trusting that God will answer in His perfect timing. (Philippians 4:6-7)
