Religious Education

Classes are doing some wonderful work in Religious Education at the beginning of our new Church Year. Each grade is completing a unit about Advent and Christmas. Check out some of this great learning (in one day!) showcased below.

Kindergarten is learning about John the Baptist.

Year 1 has been learning about preparing our hearts for the coming of Jesus during the season of  Advent.

Year 2 was exploring the symbolism of the “Advent Wreath.” They have made their own Advent Wreaths.

Year 3 were using a ‘keyword’ strategy to listen to some information about Advent and then to summarise and give the key information to a friend (an oral language strategy)

Year 4 were using the “Understanding Faith Website” to unpack key vocabulary and themes about the Advent season.

Vida in Year 5 created this image to creatively demonstrate the Advent season.

Year 6 have been reflecting on the words of their Christmas song and how this relates to the promise of our saviour, Jesus in the Old Testament. They have also created their own images for the ‘Jesse’ Tree.
