Year 5 Communion and Lunch at Church

Year 5 enjoyed joining Rev Kev and the rest of the congregation at Church on Tuesday for Holy Communion. We wrote prayers for the persecuted people in the world and spoke them in church, as well as reading the Beatitudes perfectly. Everyone had a lovely morning, and Year 5 learnt more about how a Holy Communion works. We had our lunch at church, before returning to school.

Year 5 R.E. - Learning about Holy Books

As part of our R.E. Bible Topic, we have studied Holy Books from World Religions, including the Torah and the Qur'an, comparing these sacred texts to the Bible. We learned that the Torah is made of scrolls and must be handwritten, and that Muslims must learn the Qur'an by memorising the text. We played a game where the children tried to memorise parts of the first verse of the Qur'an to tell their team - against the clock! It was difficult, but a lot of fun!

Children made snow angels and had a really enjoyable time running around in the snow. Then we all  had to get  a snowball and try and hit Mrs Meagher with it.

We further developed our Roman sandal designs this week, and tried to really understand the purpose of shoe laces and how we can incorporate them into our designs. We managed to make paper sandals which actually fit on our own feet! Next week, we will be designing our final outcomes, using evaluations from our mock ups.

Reception - PSHE - Healthy Eating.

In PSHE we have been thinking about what food is healthy to eat. We talked about lots of different types of food and the children voted if it was good or bad for them. They certainly have some favourite foods but we agreed that they are not always good for us!
