This week we have finished our R.E topic ‘Celebrating’ and have enjoyed making a candle of our own to show that Jesus is the light of the world.
Today, Year 5 covered charitable giving in their RE lesson. They worked hard to research and design posters in support of their local food bank.

We have been looking at our advent wreath. We talked about when to light the different coloured candles and how it helps us to count down to Jesus birthday!
We have had lots of fun learning all about Judaism this week. We looked at the Jewish festival of lights, Hanukkah and loved looking at Jewish artefacts like the Manorah. We even played a dreidel game.
As part of our RE topic ‘Welcome’, we have been learning about baptisms. The children really enjoyed our role play of a Baptism in class and they took it in turns to play the parts. E.g. the priest, parents and Godparents. We have learned lots of new vocabulary connected to baptism.
Year 3 have used two War poems to create their ‘blackout poetry’ for Remembrance Day. We selected important vocabulary to create our poem, then ‘blacked out’ the rest of the words with our poppy picture.
As part of CAFOD’s ’Eyes of the World’ campaign, Year 3 have created illustrations to show our World Leaders what they would like them to do to make a difference to our world. We have discussed how we can all make difference, but we would like our world leaders to lead by example. #CAFOD
