Sikhism

Our topic in RE this year is Sikhism. We are very lucky in class to have two Sikh classmates who were nice enough to share some of their wonderful food and culture with us.

Thank you Dil and Kieran!

Can anyone remember which items of clothing Dil and Kieran brought in?
Can you name any ceremonies they might wear these clothes for?

Black History Month

Following on from our fantastic assembly with Mrs. Cameron, we have been learning about the history of black peoples this month. Take a look at some of our wonderful African-inspired art below.

We also had a visitor from a guest who taught us a traditional rain song!

After this, we looked at the history of black peoples in America. To contribute to our show assembly, we made an art display using four key words to describe the history of black peoples in America as inspiration for our work; slavery, segregation, change and acceptance.

Can you see which pieces of art match our four key words?

The Forbidden Corner

Here are some photos from our fantastic day out at The Forbidden Corner... more to follow soon!

Look at these monster's escaping from their underground homes!

My group looking very dry at the start of the day...
