RE in Action

 

Faith Champions

At our school, Religious Education (RE) comes to life through engaging lessons and meaningful experiences that help our children explore faith, values, and the world around them. Pupils are actively involved in worship, taking part in planning and leading assemblies, prayers, and special celebrations that reflect our school’s values. We are also excited to be developing our Faith Champions roles – giving children the opportunity to grow as leaders in faith, support their peers in spiritual development, and help shape the RE and worship life of our school community.

We encourage all pupils to be courageous advocates for change and each year our pupils in Class 3 are given the exciting opportunity to take part in this fulfilling project.

“The KS2 Award is a fully resourced leadership and character education programme where pupils have practical opportunities to volunteer and help others in their community.”

Other Religions

July 2023 – Class 5 were very privileged to spend some time talking to Preet Kaur Gill – the first female British Sikh MP. It was very interesting to hear about the different things she has experienced and witnessed in her life and how these have influenced who she has become to be and do today. It was hugely insightful and the pupils could see that she is very inspirational. The children have been exploring the question ‘What can we learn from the great leaders and inspiring examples in today’s world?’. The children’s were invited to show connections/comparisons between different religions.
