 R.E.

 In RE this half term we will be exploring  Loss, death and Christian hope. We will be looking at what the Bible says about Heaven and that as Christians we have the promise of eternal life with God in Heaven. We will have a session with Father Ian where he will address any questions we may have on this sensitive subject.

We will look at the subject of Heaven from children's books, especially one called Heaven written by Nicholas Allen. This book looks at Heaven from a dogs point of view and is a light hearted way of looking at a serious subject.
