CHILDRENS' PROGRAMME: LANDLUBBERS!
features two different groups of pirates, who are both on the same remote tropical island. The drama follows the adventures of four pirates who have grown dissatisfied with their life of looting and raiding. They yearn for a more peaceful life, living as honest, law-abiding citizens. But first they must work out how to get off the island!
Meanwhile, the presenters (and the children) are also on the island. But they are searching for treasure, with the aid of a map and some puzzling clues they received from a mysterious castaway. Both groups eventually find what they are looking for, although it doesn't take the form they expect. One group discovers true freedom, while the other finds out about the greatest treasure of all - knowing Christ.
LANDLUBBERS! is for children in KS1 & KS2, and is based on Paul's letter to the Philippians. The programme will help children:
- learn about Jesus, and what it means to become his follower
- learn about the apostle Paul and some of his adventures
- live as followers of Jesus
- explore Philippians for themselves
The LANDLUBBERS! are meeting Monday to Friday, 9.45am to 12.15pm, in the Children's Marquees. (Pre-registered children only)
