Priamry 7A, 7B and Primary 6 were invited to attend the Bubblegum and Fluff event at St Andrew’s church on Monday 11th December 2017. During this event we explored the meaning of Christmas through games, drama, storytelling, craft and songs. We all had a fabulous time and we are very grateful to the members of the congregation who gave up their time to welcome us into their church. The Bubblegum and Fluff song was so catchy that we are still singing it!
Primary 7 have been learning about the Five Pillars of Islam. These pillars ensure that a Muslim’s faith provides a framework for their everyday life. We worked in groups to research and present the relevant information for each pillar. We learned so much from Mr Abdul Aziz who visited us and talked about his faith.
Over the last few weeks we have been learning about celebrations in different religions. To do this we looked at weddings and the various aspects of these celebrations in Christianity, Islam and Judaism. We tied our learning in RME to other curricular areas e.g. Technologies where we designed and built window frames.
We also used Weddings as our topic for our work in Expressive Arts. As part of this, with Primary 2 we turned our frames into stained glass windows just like you might see in a cathedral.
We then learned the song ‘Love Story’ by Taylor Swift and prepared and performed a drama of a Christian Wedding at our learning and teaching assembly.
“It was really good fun and amazing!” – Emily
“I really enjoyed preparing and performing the drama of a Christian wedding.” – Lewis
We have been learning about Christian baptisms. We watched a short video and took notes of the main points. Using our notes we wrote a paragraph explaining what happens at a Christian baptism.
