Grades 3 & 4 leave Haran for Hebron

Students of grades 3 & 4 from Tamaki PIPC found out all about Abram and Lot's journey from Haran to Hebron. How did they do this? Simple they walked down Pt England Rd, stopped at Te Ao Hou Childcare, then again at Pt England Reserve. All these places represented those in this famous story when Abram was first called by God to 'Go to the place I am going to show you'. All the way down Pt England Rd we followed chalked arrows on the footpath with this verse from God to Abram until we arrived at the sacred tree of Moreh, in Shechem where we built an altar, prayed, set our camp then packed up again stopping at the place between Ai and Bethel. Result - we got to experience some of what Abram may have and now know all the place names and people in lesson one for NZ SSU 2012.
Thanks to the amazing students of Grades 3,4 and 12 for being so open and willing to take part and be part of Abram and Lot's lot on this very sunny day in GI.
