Religious Education subject overview
Buddhism
In the final faith-based assembly, the children learned all about Buddhism.
Discussing Judaism
Today we welcomed Ian and Ginny from the Highfields Synagogue to lead our assembly. The assembly was informative and interesting and as always our children asked some fantastic questions to strengthen their own knowledge and understanding.
An introduction to Paganism
Angela from the St Philip’s Centre delivered this week’s assembly, speaking about Paganism. The children had lots of questions to ask and learned a great deal.
Easter assembly
Our friend Rev Andrew delivered an Easter assembly today. He discussed the rebirth of Jesus as a symbol of hope and he encouraged the children to consider the meaning of the Easter eggs.
Hinduism
Our faith assembly today was on Hinduism and led by Neela Parmer. Many thanks to St Phillip’s Centre for arranging these speakers, we learn something new every week.
Messages on Islam
This week we were visited by Asiya Ahmed from St Philip’s Centre who talked to the children about Islam.
Broadening perspectives through assemblies this term
We welcomed St Phillips Centre to Uplands this week. Over the next 8 weeks, children will have a different faith leader talking to them in assembly about their faith. Today, we welcomed a friend from the Sikh community to Uplands. The children asked some fantastic questions and recognised similarities and differences across religions.
