Happy Friday Skylarks. I hope you have had fun outdoors enjoying the sunshine this week. It has been hot in school but we managed to find some shade. Have a lovely weekend and I'll speak to you all on Monday.

RE Activity:  Stories from different faiths 

This week I would like you to watch the video link showing you the stories from the Sikh Faith:  

Duni Chand and the Silver Needle                                                 

 The Milk and the Jasmine Flower

These stories teach special messages about the choices people make and the values people can choose to live by. Think about those messages. 

Which of these messages do you think the stories try and teach? Have a discussion with someone in your house and see if they agree with you.

• If you are very rich you are very important. 

• Being kind is more valuable than owning lots of stuff. 

• There is only room for one type of religion and everyone must believe the same thing. 

• Helping others is a good thing to do. 

• Having time and space to accept other people is important. 

• Ignoring people who are poor is okay.
