Thinking about why it is important that we respect ourselves. We look at the Bible and see that: ...we are 'fearfully and wonderfully made'. 'God created us in His own image' 'God knows even the number of hairs on our heads.' We think about our own worth and how much God thinks we are worth - far more than any work of art. We are priceless!

We really enjoyed looking at the artwork and guessing what they are worth. Just like with ourselves, who made us (God) plays a large part for what we are worth. From all in 6W ##### Mrs Walton *30 June 2021* Thank you 6W. Guessing the costs of the art work was definitely a challenge - I'm not sure that even if if I had that much money I'd be willing to spend it on those pieces of art! But as you say, God - the creator of ourselves - the human body and soul, - the most amazing piece of Science and Art - made us priceless! Money really couldn't buy us! ### Leave a Comment - [![Artsmark Award](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/images/partners/Am_Schl_Gld_RGB.jpg)](https://st-matthewscofe.lancs.sch.uk/about-us/our-awards) - [![EAL Quality Mark](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/images/partners/EAL_Silver.jpg)](https://st-matthewscofe.lancs.sch.uk/about-us/our-awards) - [![Halo Code](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/images/partners/halo_code.jpg)](https://st-matthewscofe.lancs.sch.uk/about-us/our-awards) ##### Location New Hall Lane Preston Lancashire PR1 5XB ##### Contact Us 01772 794482 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61587761925215) - [X](https://x.com/mackley_ma56490) © Copyright 2018–2026 St Matthew's Church of England Primary Academy and Nursery School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
