chinese new year
Children in Primary 4 and 5 have been learning about Chinese New Year and used their mathematical skills to help feed the dragon and ensure that prosperity continued. The children really enjoyed hearing about another culture and made some lovely comparisons and links with celebrations in the United Kingdom. Children also received a goodie bag to mark the occasion.
judaism assembly
Children have been learning about Judaism in a recent whole school assembly. Led by Mr Clint, children had the opportunity to hear about and view the Torah, the Menorah, the Shofar (Ram's Horn) and the Hebrew alphabet. Some lucky volunteers had the opportunity to wear a Talit (Prayer Shawl) and Kippah (Skull Cap).
We are so very grateful that our children have had the opportunity to learn about another faith in such a respectful manner. On behalf of the entire school community, I extend our thanks to Mr Clint for his time in leading such an interactive and informative presentation.
We would love to hear from others in our school community who have links with other faiths and cultures to allow our children to broaden their experiences even further.
