What a lovely afternoon in Year 2. After spending the half term finding out about some of the ways Christians use the church, we finished off by acting out a Christian wedding ceremony. Everyone came in dressed for the occasion and we had a wonderful wedding. Well done Year 2.

To finish our RE unit on how Christians use the church, today we had our Year 2 wedding role play. We have learnt that, for Christians, a wedding is about love and God watching over the marriage. We know that there are hymns, prayers, Bible readings and vows at a church wedding.

The children dressed up for this special occasion and really enjoyed the serious and important ceremony, followed by the fun and exciting celebration (lots of dancing at the wedding reception). It was a beautiful wedding!

Here are some more photos from our special day!

And a few photos of the dancing at the wedding reception. We all had lots of fun!

We'd also like to thank George and James' Mum for sending in some beautiful flowers from the garden to make our wedding even more beautiful.

Hollywood Bible Variety says Harry and Meghan have become a ‘one-trick pony’ with their complaints against the Royal Family, I tend to agree. What are your thoughts? buff.ly/3YEvGxD

Year 2 RE - Christianity: We have been learning that, for Christians, Harvest is a time to thank God for all the food that has been grown and a time to help those in need. We also talked about next week's Harvest collection and how we can help others.

Year 3 RE - Christianity: Today we built on our understanding of the word 'miracle' from last week and learned the story of Jesus feeding the five thousand.

Year 4 RE: Judaism. Yesterday we learned about the Jewish festival of Sukkot and how it remembers the time when Jews wandered in the wilderness for 40 years after their escape from Egypt. Ask us what a Sukkah is.

Year 5 RE: Christianity. Yesterday we learned how to navigate the Bible using Book, Chapter and Verse. We also learned that there are many different types of writing in the Bible, like stories, poetry and prophecy.

Year 1 RE: Multi-faith. Today, in our work on belonging, we learned a bit about Christianity. We know that Christians believe in one God, that they believe Jesus was the Son of God and that some Christians celebrate the festivals of Christmas and Easter.

Year 6 RE: Islam. Today we have been learning about the importance of the prophets within Islam, building on our knowledge of Muhammed (PBUH) from Year 5. We know that some of these prophets are also important in Judaism and Christianity and they all taught belief in one God.

Year 2 RE: Christianity. Today we thought about the importance of hymns, Bible readings and prayers at a Christian wedding. We worked together to write wedding prayers and started to prepare for next week's exciting event!

Year 3 RE: Christianity. Today we continued our learning about Jesus. We already know that Jesus used stories called parables to teach his followers. Today we learned the story of the Lost Sheep and how Christians view God as being like the good shepherd in the story.

Year 4 RE: Judaism. Continuing our work on Jewish festivals, today we have learned about Shavuot and how Jews remember Moses being given the 10 Commandments by God on Mount Sinai. We particularly enjoyed finding out about the special foods people eat to celebrate.

Year 5 RE: Christianity. Continuing with our work on the Bible, we have been learning about 'stewardship' and what it means to Christians. We read in the Bible that humans have been given the responsibility to take care care of all of God's creation.

Year 1 RE: Multi-faith. Today we learned a little bit about Islam. We know that Muslims worship one God, Allah. We learned that their place of worship is called the mosque and that their holy book, the Quran, must not be placed on the floor.

Year 6 RE: Islam. Today we have learned the story of Muhammed (PBUH) and the Crying Camel. We have discussed how the Muslim belief in Allah as the Creator, who entrusted the world to humans to take care of, would have an impact on how they treat the world around them.

Year 2 RE: Christianity - Wedding Day! To finish our unit of work on how the church is used, we acted out a Christian wedding with hymns, prayers and readings. Everyone came dressed specially for the day and we had a fabulous morning. We also had a super photographer!
