Re day

 On Thursday it was a whole school RE day. In year 2 we looked at the concept of special food. We started by talking about how food can be special and what makes it special. We talked about how sharing food with our families and not having it very often can make it special. We drew pictures of our own special foods. We then thought about special foods that Christians might share, we learnt about Holy Communion and how Christians believe that the bread and wine represent Jesus blood and body. Finally we learnt a little about prasad and how special food plays a role in Hindu worship.

The final result really sounded like a storm!
