I’m sure like me, you have all been thinking about food quite often:

 What three meals can we have today?  How can I make the only thing I can control interesting and healthy (at least sometimes!)?  What can I make with what is left in my fridge and cupboards?!  I want to share pictures Prawn Jambalaya with family and friends of Jaden Thompson Year 8 my latest cooking attempts  I just want to cook as it’s one of the things I love to do and it makes my family happy!  Well I can see you all have been, as I have been inundated with pictures and messages of students cooking at home and creating Lemon Drizzle Cake dishes that they and their families Mae Blackwell Year 7 enjoy.

What if our religion was each other? If our practice was our life? If prayer was our words?
