RE
Welcome to our Religious Education page!
We have been very lucky to have lots of visitors during our RE lessons, we hope to have more visits and visitors throughout the year.
Please have a look at our photos below!
In Summer we will be looking at:
Sacred places, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, non religious views.
Early Years follow the EYFS curriculum and cover RE aspects through ‘Understanding of the World’ and 'People and Communities.'
They follow the children’s interests but try and ensure that various religious celebrations are used as points of interest throughout the year alongside a basic understanding of the religious and cultural aspects of our lives, forming a good foundation of understanding and tolerance for the following school years to build upon.
| Year 1 | Year 2 | Year 3 | Year 4 | Year 5 | Year 6 |
Autumn 1 | Who do Christians say made the world? | What does it mean to belong to a faith community? | What is it like for someone to follow God? | What do Christians learn from the Creation Story? | What does it mean if Christians believe God is holy and loving? | Creation and Science: Conflicting or complimentary? |
Autumn 2 | Why does Christmas matter to Christians? | What do Christians believe God is like? | What do Hindus believe God is like? | What does it mean to be a Hindu in Britain today? | Why do Christians believe Jesus was the Messiah? | Why is the Torah so important to Jewish people? |
