Science & R.E. Workshop

Today Year 3 took part in cross-curricular carousel of activities. This included discussing and re-enacting a Baptism where children took different roles such as the Priest, parents and Godparents.  The children learnt about the history of baptism and the signs and symbols used today. This followed a visit from Deacon John on Monday where the children had the opportunity to learn about and smell the oils used in baptism. They were also very lucky to have a visit from Mrs Shaw who taught us about how soil is formed. We learnt about the importance of worms in our soil. The children were able to hold them which they loved! They then talked about the three different rock types and finished with a volcanic eruption.
