Serenity is asking the question.... What values are shown in codes for living? 

Do rules matter?

What codes for living do people who are not religious use?

What codes for living do Christians try to follow?

Where do Muslims find their inspiration?

UKS2 have been exploring key Muslim stories that teach us about Muslim actions, words and instructions. The children re enacted the different stories and will be analysing their meaning and how we will apply it to our everyday life.

UKS2 have been learning about Jewish codes of living.

The children learnt about Tikkum Olam - the Jewish view that we must care for our world.

After a class discussion, they labelled a broken world with solutions to solve the world’s problems before writing a speech about how to make small changes in our life following Tikkum Olam.

UKS2  created symbols which represent an organisation which is dedicated to world peace, such as the EU, Christian Aid and Islamic Relief. They described the meaning behind their symbol using key vocabulary.

UKS2 had a discussion and put forward their argument for either agreeing or disagreeing  with the following statement:

”It is better to follow the rules than do what you think is right”

Serenity has asked the question...  Should we forgive others?

Our children have been discussing the concepts of forgiveness and reconciliation in Christianity.
