Class Saint
We have chosen St. Josephine Bakhita as our Class Saint.
RE
Lent
In this unit of work children will be given some opportunities to develop their knowledge and understanding of prayer, fasting and almsgiving as important Lenten activities. They will examine the teaching of Jesus about these things and think about why they might be important activities for Christians today. In this unit children will also explore the Church’s teaching on the forgiveness and God through the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
Holy Week
In this unit the children will learn about the passion of Jesus from the events that took place in the Garden of Gethsemane through to the death of Jesus on the cross. They will find out some reasons why Christians have described the death of Jesus as a sacrifice.
Class Texts
PE
P.E. lessons will take place on Thursday this half term. Please ensure that your child’s P.E. kit remains in school from Monday to Friday, as additional sessions may take place during the week where appropriate.
This half term, pupils will focus on gymnastics, developing strength, flexibility, balance and control. They will refine their ability to create and perform sequences with increasing precision, working both independently and collaboratively.
As we approach the summer term, children will also take part in skills-based sessions designed to prepare them for rounders, cricket and athletic track events. These sessions will develop teamwork, coordination and game understanding, helping pupils to build confidence ahead of Sports Day and summer sporting activities.
