Local visit to St Peter's Church and the Madina Mosque

Lesson: Religious education

Class: Year 2 Year: 2025 - 2026

This week Year 2 visited the local church and mosque so that the children could experience the similarities and differences of both religious places. They Met Reverend George who told them all about St Peter's Church and at 11 'O'Clock the children did their 2 minutes silence by the memorial for the soldiers that died during the Great War. They then went next door to the Madina Mosque and met Iman Saleem. He told them all about the local Mosque and what happens during pray times.

Before they visited the local religious places they went to Arcadia Library where they were read a story and were able to take out their own library book which they are enjoying reading in school. 

We had a great day and learned about Christianity and Islam.
