Follow the Star
Our children followed stars all along St Silas Road to our Christmas service. Beech class children led us in a wonderful service about how Christmas is celebrated across the world. Thank you to Father Paul for his fabulous welcome and words. Year 4 children made the stars with St Silas artists Alistair. They also made stars for the light wall in St Silas Church.

PSHE Year 1
We have been learning about the different groups we belong to and how we are surrounded with lots of love.
Year 2 RE and PSHE
Year 2 have really enjoyed learning all about angels and how they bring us good news. We have learnt about Elizabeth and Zechariah and Mary and Joseph. We role played the story to see how Mary and Joseph would feel hearing the news they were going to have a baby! In PSHE Year 2 have been looking at belonging and how we all belong to different groups. We have been comparing our families and how they are all different but all filled with love! Look at our wonderful houses we made with our families inside.
