We have had lots of fun this week learning about how Eid and Easter are celebrated in the community. Key stage 1 had an energetic Easter Egg hunt in the playground and shared special treats together with their class. Children also made cards for their loved ones.
In KS2 children explored Islamic art through print making. Year 5 and 6 were creative and used painting to reflect on their beliefs and produced beautiful artwork.
Children also had lots of rich discussion about how they celebrate religious festivals with their families. Festivals and celebrations around the world bring people together, often through caring and sharing, preparing special food and by exchanging gifts.
At Harbinger festivals and celebrations are a great opportunity to support our children in their understanding of the beliefs and values of the people around the world as well as the commonalities that we shared by all cultures and religions.
We wish everyone a Happy Easter and Eid Mubarak to everyone who will be celebrating during this festive time.
