This week we have had representatives from the local Muslim community in to speak to S2 pupils about their faith in Islam.  This opportunity has allowed pupils to ask questions and participate in activities which have enhanced their understanding of the 5 Pillars of Islam and challenged stereotypes of Muslims.  Pupils will use this knowledge and further research in class to produce a report on the key beliefs and practices of Islam and their significance today.

Building on their research investigations on Martin Luther King in S1 and Islam in S2, this week our S3 RME classes worked with our school librarian Mrs Mundie to learn how to use Harvard Referencing when writing a bibliography.  Pupils will evidence their learning by completing a research project on one of the world religions of their choice from: Buddhism, Hinduism or Sikhism.
