| During our week in
Darlington, we had the privilege of going into several schools. Both the Music and
Religious Education (RE) teachers provided time for us with the students. The Reed
Street Primary School teaches kids from 4 to 11 years old. Hurworth Secondary School
teaches kids from 12 (Year 7) to 16 (Year 11). Both schools allowed us time for
lessons and music, and we thoroughly enjoyed the interaction with students and teachers
alike! In the United States, we don't get an opportunity to present the Gospel in
the public (what the U.K. calls 'state') school system; in the United Kingdom it is an
integral part of the curriculum (as the RE classes cover all the major World Religions for
ALL grades!). Can't say WE didn't learn something this trip!!! |
