Year 1 Weekly Blog 1.5.26 - "Those who trust in God can do all things." - St Alphonsus Liguori

In this weeks Gospel we hear how Jesus prepared the Disciples for His departure and told them not to worry, but to trust in Jesus. We have been focused on this in our RE learning, the children have all been busy acting out Pentecost, showing great knowledge about what happened. We have also been learning about Holy days and what this means. The children loved sharing their own experiences and memories of their own holidays, before hearing about how other countries celebrate the special Holy Day which is Pentecost.

Going deeper in conversation

This week we have discussed the word, ‘Trust’. Can you remember what it means to trust someone? Who do you trust and why? Can you remember a time when someone trusted you?

Magic moments

This week had such fun in our PE lessons! The children love to challenge themselves! We have been developing our throwing skills, in particular our rolling and under arm throws. Enjoy the photographs of our indoor PE lesson this week!
