R.E. week

We enjoyed learning about the Trinity and the importance of the Gospel in telling the stories of Jesus.

The children loved making fidget spinners, showing the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in the Trinity.

We created a display of stained glass windows and stories from the Gospels.

In R.E. we are also learning about the Lord's Prayer and the history of the Lord's prayer.

We have researched and written some of our own versions.
