13. The shadows longer grow…

14. The ripened fruits hang on the tree, they make the branches low…

15. Speckled sunlight shivers through ever-thinning leaves, its rays dispersed and scattered by the silver shimmering trees….

16. The tubs and hanging baskets, which were once fresh and bright, look tired brown and lanky a wistful withering sight…

17. Excited birdsong signals change. Some gather for their flight
Excited birdsong signals change. Some gather for their flight. They know that autumn’s on the way, for longer grows the night…

18. The leaves will shortly start to fall when once their glory’s over…

19. The hay is safely gathered in, in barn and shed and store…

20. The hedgehog eats its winter fill before it hides away…

21. All creatures wear their winter coats to keep the cold at bay…

22. These signs and more are very clear in the message they convey
These signs and more are very clear in the message they convey. That summertime is almost past and autumn’s on its way…

23. Let’s call in the Scientific LEAF CHIEFS

24. Why do leaves turn colour in autumn?

25. Green packages of chlorophyll in the leaves need water from the ground.

26. Without water the green chlorophyll starts to disappear and the other colours in the leaf – the yellow and the orange – can finally be seen. The leaves lose their green!

27. Red or purple leaves are caused by the sugar in the leaf sap.

28. Brown leaves are caused when…

29. How can we turn over a new leaf this autumn and be better friends?

30. Share each other's troubles and problems, and in this way obey the law of Christ.
Galations 6:2 
There are friends who hurt each other, but a real friend sticks closer than a brother or sister.
Proverbs 19:24

31. CONKERS Conkers. I’m collecting conkers
I’m trying hard to find the biggest and the best
Conkers. Lots of lovely conkers
I want a conker that is better than the rest

32. Under the chestnut tree There waits for me
A sight so marv’llous to behold
Amidst the autumn leaves
It gleams at me
A conker, beautiful and bold

33. Conkers. I’m collecting conkers
Chorus
Conkers. I’m collecting conkers
I’m trying hard to find the biggest and the best
Conkers. Lots of lovely conkers
I want a conker that is better than the rest

34. Under the chestnut tree Where no-one’s been,
The spiky shells lie on the ground
Beneath their armour green
There hides unseen
A conker smooth and shiny brown

35. Conkers. I’m collecting conkers
Chorus
Conkers. I’m collecting conkers
I’m trying hard to find the biggest and the best
Conkers. Lots of lovely conkers
I want a conker that is better than the rest

36. Under the chestnut tree I stretch to see A final conker to be mine
If only I can reach
To pull it free
I’ll add it to my ninety-nine (One Hundred)

37. Conkers. I’m collecting conkers
Chorus
Conkers. I’m collecting conkers
I’m trying hard to find the biggest and the best
Conkers. Lots of lovely conkers
I want to find a special one to beat the rest
Conkers. Lots of lovely conkers.
Conkers. lots of lovely conkers (repeat to fade)
