Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon
me; And they said, Let us rise up and build.
So they strengthened their hands for this good work.
Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following
KS0 - KS2.
Covers age four to age eleven.
Most of the resources for KS0, KS1 and KS2 have originally been produced
by King’s School Witney, a Christian school in Oxfordshire. Valley Christian
School Online has purchased the resources and has converted them into
digital booklets. Digital copies of all booklets can be viewed and downloaded
from the website. We are also able to supply printed booklets at a
reasonable cost.
All the parent’s guides are comprehensive and follow a regular pattern. They
have a biblical Truth to Teach which are bible references that are the source
of the subject. This is followed by the Way to Work which is a lesson based
means of conducting the topic. The fulfilment is confirmed in the Learning
For Life list.

abilities and attitudes. Both theory and practise are covered in the
lessons.

required but not all is essential. There are also Assessment suggestions
and additional differentiated worksheets to challenge more able
children.
Cambridge Primary Maths games
