Year 5 learning about Sikhism



In Year 5 this term we have been exploring Sikhism. On the last Friday of term, we were visited by some guests from the local Sikh community, who discussed the importance of Sikhism in their life. We found out about the daily routines Sikhs follow to ensure they are following the values of their religion respectfully. Moreover, the visitors bought along significant Sikh objects that held an important role in their religion; these items where the 5Ks, which some of us had the chance to wear! It was great to listen to the values that Sikhs hold close to their hearts and how the 5K’s really support the foundations of their faith. We asked questions about Sikhism to broaden our understanding of the values people from the Sikh religion have; also, we identified how other faiths have values that they hold strongly and how this is similar for those in the Sikh faith.
