We have spent a lot of time on our RE topic this week. The work is about places of worship and pilgrimage. Following our work on Mosques, we thought about Christian churches. We had a visit to St. James' Parish Church where we looked at the church furniture and different parts of the church and heard about baptism and Holy Communion. Back at school we used photographs that had been taken at the church to make our own powerpoint presentations to show some of the things we had seen and learned about. We have also been learning about the Hajj - a pilgrimage that Muslim people look forward to making at least once in their lives if they can. We looked at a virtual tour of the Hajj on the internet to find our some of the things that people do on the Hajj and the significance of them.

We also did some more work on our mental addition and subtraction and practiced our DARE presentation once again.

11th March was an INSET day.
