For RE day, we explored the question ‘ Why do Christians call Jesus the light of the world?’ We started off by reading the story about Jesus healing a blind man, then we discussed the significance of Christingles for Christians. Lastly, we created stain glass windows to represent how Christians may view Jesus as the light of the world.
Take a look at what activities each year group carried out on or RE Day this week!
The Hebburn Lakes Family were given a wonderful surprise when Santa Claus landed with a bump on our school roof. He visited all the children in their classes and promised to leave them a gift after their party. The children had a cuddle and sang him songs. He ended his visit by meeting and greeting parents and carers at the school gates.

Today Reception and Key Stage One to start off our Christmas celebrations we were fortunate to have a theatre company come in to school to perform the pantomime Aladdin. We all had an amazing time, laughed out loud, had a cheeky little snack and to top it off we got to see Mrs Sikka and Miss Clark dance with the cast.
Today we talked about the Christmas story. We asked who knew the characters, who they were and which character was the most important in the story of Christmas . We discussed which parts the children in Reception are playing in our performance and how Christians often recreate the story in their church at Christmas. Some of the children then recreated the story and built a stable and others decided to paint the nativity scene.
In One Red and One BLue this week we have been learning all about the Aurora in Learning Means the World. The children created beautiful pictures in their Art lesson to create the ‘Northern Lights’. They used different coloured pastels to rub and create beautiful representation of the night sky colourful explosions.
As part of our ‘Come Fly With Me: Africa!’ theme we have enjoyed learning how to play the djembe drums.
This week in LMTW we have been looking at links with other countries. The children were asked if they had any family or friends who lived in different countries, then they talked to each other about them. We shared various greetings from other countries such as ‘ola’, ‘bonjour’, ‘guten tag’ and ‘namaste’. The children had great fun working in partners greeting each other in different languages. We also looked at the world map to see where some of our family and friends lived.
