Today we explored the festival of Hannukah. The children watched clips of the festival and learnt new words such as Menorah, Dreidel and Judaism. The children made Menorahs and practiced Hebrew writing. They were able to compare the candles to other festivals we have learnt about with lights.

6B had a lovely afternoon during ‘Faith Day’. The children studied Judaism and how Jewish people celebrate Yom Kippur. We looked at what happens during Yom Kippur and how it represents a day of atonement where Jewish people ask for forgiveness for any wrongdoings and make pledges. With this in mind, the children then made their own cards to apologise to anyone they felt they had wronged, or pledges of how to be the best versions of themselves.

This afternoon, we have been learning about the Islamic Religion, in particular, about the mosques where muslims worship.
After finding out some background information, we were really pleased to be joined by Rayyan’s mum, who talked to us and answered our questions about her faith.
After building our knowledge, we demonstrated what we had learnt by becoming Mosque Visitor guides.
I am so proud of how hard everyone worked. What a lovely way to learn more about the varied lives of people in our class, crew, school and community and to help us appreciate each other more.
We would like to say a big ‘thank you’ to Ms Gent for coming in this afternoon to talk to us, we really appreciate you giving us your time.

4H have worked really hard today to build their understanding of the Muslim Holy Book: The Qurāan. They collated information from our Gallery Walk and transformed it into some beautiful posters to be proud of! Well done everyone; you have gained a wealth of knowledge in a polite and respectful way, and really taken pride in the work you have produced.

Year 6 have enjoyed learning more about Islam and how Muslims try to live their lives using the 5 Pillars of Islam. They asked questions to deepen their understanding and showed fantastic respect and tolerance when discussing different beliefs that people have. They produced some lovely work linked to the 5 Pillars of Islam #LovePlover
