Year 3 and 4 RE


During this term Year 3 and 4 have been exploring a programme of study entitled, ‘Why do some people think that Jesus is inspirational?’ 

We began our study by thinking about people we consider to be inspiring - this ranged from authors to sports people to mums and dads. 

We then considered how Jesus is an inspirational figure.  We thought about Jesus as an engaging teacher by the parables he told, as well as having the confidence to spread his message and values to large crowds, especially the Sermon on the Mount.  We have also thought about Jesus as an inspiration to those in need with his healing and the wonder of his miracles.  His life story we have also considered inspiring, especially the events of Holy week. 

On Wednesday 20th March we also had Revd Hookway in to talk to us about how Jesus is a very inspiring figure in his life and how he has been and still is a powerful guide.  The children really enjoyed the talk as well as having time to ask further questions.  We would like to thank Revd Hookway for coming to talk to us at this busy time of year and responding to a range of thought provoking questions.

Here is a picture of our Learning Journey display and a picture from our talk - to follow


Look out for our stained glass window/cross designs in school early next term!
