Religious Education: Rules

  We are continuing our topic “Being Sorry”. The children will be learning about how Jesus forgives His friends when they show they are sorry and how he loved everyone. We are trying to do the same by keeping Jesus’ ‘Special Promise’: Love one another as I have loved you.

We have learnt how some actions can be accidental and some on purpose.  Either way, we apologise sincerely for both.

Home learning: Talk to your child about the importance of saying sorry. Encourage your child to tell you when they have done something wrong and to say sorry. Remind them when they say their prayers to say sorry to Jesus who will always forgive them.

Please continue to ensure you are also reading daily with your child as this plays a crucial part in their reading development which in turn supports their learning across the curriculum. 

On Purple Mash on the 2Do’s, there  is a letter for the children to write from the Lighthouse Keeper to his wife.  The children have to include all the punctuation we have learnt: capital letters and full stops, exclamation marks, question marks and also time sequencing words
