Our Class Saint

Saint Francis

Feast Day: 4th October

Saint Francis is the patron saint of animals, traders, and the world around us. Francis was born in Assisi, Italy, a very long time ago. His family had a lot of money. One day, Francis got very sick and thought a lot about his life. When he felt better, he went on a special trip to Rome to pray. On the way, he saw many poor people who had no money or food. When Francis came home, he chose to live like a poor man and wore simple clothes. Francis listened to what God told him to do. Francis is remembered because he cared a lot about animals and nature. He called animals his “brothers” and “sisters”. He believed that God made all living things.

 

Summer 2

Please click the 1/2 term curriculum page below to view the full curriculum for this term.

 

R.E

 

We will begin this half term by starting the unit Our Church. This unit will develop the children’s understanding of what it means to be a part of God’s special family. We will look carefully at the role of the parish and people with special responsibilities.

We will then move onto the unit The Mass. This will develop the children’s understanding of the structure of the Mass and what is taking place. The focus will be on seeing Christ present as we gather in the word and in the Eucharist.
