Sikh artefacts! - Year 2

In year 2 this term, we are learning about the way Sikhs live and worship. We discussed what we already know about Sikhism and asked questions on what we would like to find out about Sikhism. We then identified key symbols such as the Khanda and explored Sikh artefacts that are important to Sikhs. Take a look below and see!

 

Sikhism Visit in Year 2

This week, Year 2 welcomed one of our parent governors in to talk to us about Sikhism. As part of our topic this half term, we learnt about the 5Ks and how Sikhs live their everyday life. We were then able to ask questions and even took part in a quiz at the end!

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.
