The sessions use different creative arts, according to the strengths of the team member undertaking your booking, such as storytelling, music, dance, mime, drama, creative writing, or drawing. The material is based on biblical and historical accounts, personal story and shared experience.
Barnabas works with the themes of Our World, Caring for Others, Our Uniqueness, The Bible, Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter and Harvest, using Bible stories and contemporary life illustrations to explore them.
The themes also address many PSHE / Citizenship objectives, such as:
Our World: what improves and harms your environment, responsibility towards your environment
Caring for Others: recognizing choices, realizing other people have needs, caring, bullying, racism
Our Uniqueness: recognizing similarities and differences between people, feeling positive about yourself, recognizing your worth as an individual, recognizing and challenging stereotypes
