Nursery - R.E - Exploring Our Community
This week, Nursery class took part in a heartwarming RE lesson, all about community! We started by looking at a special picture of our whole class together. It was so lovely to see all our happy faces! We learned a new, important word: 'community'. We talked about how our class is a community, a special group of people who are together and care for each other. The children then had a chance to choose a friend from our class picture. It was delightful to see so many cuddles and high-fives being shared! We chatted about how we can help our friends feel happy, whether it’s sharing a toy or giving a kind smile. We also introduced the beautiful idea that people caring for each other is just like Jesus taught us. It was a gentle and meaningful way to explore how love and kindness bring us all closer, right here in our own school community. The children really engaged with the lesson, showing great recognition of their friends and demonstrating their understanding of being part of our special community. What a joy to see such love and connection in our classroom!
Reception - RE - Visit To The Church
As part of our unit on Special Places, Reception Class visited our local church. They took time to notice all the special parts in the church such as the cross and coloured windows. We then discussed how people worship God and we had our own worship time using the instruments.

Pre-School- R.E- Daniel And The Lion
In our R.E lesson today the children have listened to the story of Daniel and the Lion. The children learnt how Daniels trust in God and pray saved him from being eaten by the lions. The children asked questions about the story and then went on to create their own pictures of Daniel and the lions in the den. The children had the opportunity to role play with the lions and a person we named Daniel.

Nursery - R.E - Purim Celebrations
What a wonderful time we've had learning about the special celebration of Purim today! We heard how the Jewish people were saved, and that made everyone feel so happy! Just like when we talked about the things that make us happy – and so many of the children love to dance! The children used gross motor movements to stretch and dance with colourful scarves, swirling and twirling, bringing all that happy colour into our room, just like the joy of Purim! You all danced with such happy hearts today. Well done, everyone
