During this block, in RE, Year 4 children have been learning about what it is like to be a Sikh in Peterborough.  We were able to visit the gurdwara in Peterborough and once we arrived were shown to the prayer room and we learnt about the instruments played at the gurdwara - some of us even got to play some!  We took part in several activities including an interactive quiz where the answers were distributed around the gurdwara.  The children really enjoyed the visit, particularly seeing the Sikh holy book (Guru Granth Sahib). 

Chloe said “I really enjoyed seeing the Guru Granth Sahib, hearing the prayers and listening to the music.”

The children in Reception had great fun celebrating Elmer Day on Wednesday.  We created a giant Elmer using all the colours of the rainbow before heading outside to participate in a very noisy parade around the field!  We enjoyed decorating biscuits in the afternoon and creating colourful patterns to represent Elmer's patchwork pattern. It was a fantastic way to end our Elmer topic.
