Year 1 have been exploring the idea of belonging and being part of a community in their RE lessons. Reverend Ken Wylie from St Andrew’s church visited our Key Stage 1 pupils to talk about Baptism. The Reverend explained about Christian beliefs and the meaning of Baptism. He brought the bowl from the church font and, much to the delight of the children, performed a Baptism ceremony with some dolls. Thank you to Reverend Wylie for making this an enjoyable learning experience for our pupils full of fun, energy and fascinating facts.
"We learned about Baptism. We learned about fonts."
"I liked holding the bowl when we played the game."
"We learned about a Christening."
"Reverend Ken talked about the Church."
