Welcome to

Exton & Greetham CE Primary School

RE Day - What is spirituality?

All the children spent today exploring the theme of 'Spirituality and Wellbeing' through a number of activities linked to our RE learning.

 

We started the day in our classrooms, talking about our school vision and Bible quote 'With God, all things are possible' and what this might mean for our school. We then moved to the hall for Collective Worship and a discussion about spirituality. 

 

We talked about spirituality in terms of thinking about ourselves, others, the world and beyond; focussing on the difference between spirituality and faith. We agreed that you don't have to have a faith to be spiritual and appreciate, care for and celebrate the world around us. 

 

We then split into mixed age groups to take part in a carousel of activities, including: making clay faces on the trees in nature, exploring how many wonderful things we can fit in a small box, exploring nature's colour palette, exploring mindfulness, creating a bank of acts of kindness, and exploring the 'wows, ows and nows' of our lives so far. 

 

After lunch we returned to our class groups to explore spirituality through art, through the idea of 'looking beyond'. The children created some super artwork, which will go up along the KS1 corridor over the summer holidays. Do come and have a look once it is up!
