3B faith day

In 3B, we learnt all about the Sikh place of worship, the Gurdwara. The children created a poster explaining what the Gurdwara is and how it is used. A great end to the first term. Happy half term holidays!

5S Study Sikhism

For our R.E. learning, we focused on religious festivals. Specifically, we looked at the Sikh festival of Bandi Chhor Divas.

We learnt about how it is celebrated in India, and what specific ways British families recognise the occassion.

We then told the story of the festival in groups by creating posters and storyboards.

Well done!

Year 4 Sikhism

We have been learning about Sikhism.

One aspect of our learning is how Sikhs wear special items of clothing called the 5 Ks as a sign of respect and symbolism.

F1 – Faith Day

F1 have been learning about Sikhism and their special festival, Vaisakhi. We found out that Vaisakhi is a Sikh festival, that celebrates Harvest and New Year. Sikhs go to a special temple called a Gurdwara and listen to readings from their Holy Book. We looked at the special clothes Sikhs wear for this, and in provision coloured in their flags.

Faith day in 4B

Today, the children have worked hard to learn about two new religions (Hinduism and Buddhism) and their Holy books (the four Vedas and the Tripitaka). It was great to see their enthusiasm and respect for learning about different religions. Well done 4B!

Y2 Faith Day

Everyone in Year 2 worked hard today to learn about Buddhism. The children did a Gallery Walk of images of Buddhism and enjoyed discussing the similarities and differences between Buddhism and the other religions we have looked it. Today they found out about puja, a special ceremony, where Buddhists offer prayers to Buddha to ask for help or request their blessings. The children learned about the importance of a puja plate and the things needed to go on it.

Hinduism and Buddhism in 3SG

For our faith day learning, we were first introduced to Hinduism where we learned about the origins of the religion. We recalled our Geographical skills to identify which countries have large populations of this global faith, then completed some reading activities to firm our understanding. We then continued by looking at how Hindu people worship in and out of their homes, comparing the differences.

Later, we were introduced to Buddhism and completed a fact file on what we had learnt about the religion as well as their manners of worship in temples.

Well done all!
