R.E What kind of King is Jesus?

 This half term we are discussing features of a king. We have learnt about The Parable of the Mustard Seed and created our own art work surrounding the message from the parable -  “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”
