The children joined with the story of Noah's Ark.
Thank you to the members of 'Open The Book' who provided the props and story telling.
Our Visit to the Open Centre in Derby.
We had a very interesting and insight day on our visit to Derby yesterday. We had a guided tour and explanation about religious teaching in a Hindu temple, a mosque and in a Sikh Gurdwara. The children's behaviour was superb and they asked many thoughtful questions during our visit to each place.
The KS2 children constructed a pilgrimage in the school woods for all the children to explore the meaning behind the Easter story.
We held our Easter Service in Litton Church to remember the significance of the Easter story. The Y6 children re-told the story by spelling out the word RISEN. The whole school had learnt a number of Easter hymns which we sang during the service. Some children played solo pieces during the service and Infant children sang Spring Chicken.
Our visit to St John's Church in Tideswell.
The KS2 children visited St John's Church in Tideswell to attend an Eucharist/Holy Communion experience. The children learnt about the meaning about the symbolism behind and practice behind Holy Communion. and what the Eucharist means in a Christian church.
