RE
In RE Lessons last half term, we learnt about how Christians show their belief that Jesus is God incarnate. The children imagined what it would be like if Jesus were around today.
They learnt about the different ways that Jesus described Himself through Bible study of the book of John:
- I am the bread of life (John 6 v.35)
- I am the light of the world (John 8 v.12)
- I am the gate (John 10 v.9)
- I am the good shepherd (John 10 v.14)
- I am the resurrection (John 11 v.25)
- I am the way and the truth and the life (John 14 v.6)
- I am the true vine (Jon 15 v.1)
They interviewed Reverend Susan about her beliefs, posing a series of questions.
Computing
In Computing lessons, we made use of the new Lego Spike Prime kits to build and programme robots to carry out a series of tasks based around a rescue mission following an earthquake. The kits and lessons were funded by BAE systems and the Royal Navy.
Art
In art lessons, we explored a range of media to create drawings of fruit and vegetables and produced portraits of Ernest Shackleton and Millicent Garrett Fawcett.
Rainbow Pledge Day
We helped to keep the village clean and tidy during our Rainbow Pledge Day.
We learnt how respect is built from our actions by building a tower of respect. We explored how making wrong choices could break down our strong foundations of trust.
