Year 4's Trip to St Peter's Church

Today, Year 4 visited St Peter’s Church in Hall Green for the exit point day of our ‘Living Together’ topic.  The children had designed and made some wonderful, imaginative sculptures linked to the theme of remembrance.  To give them inspiration, they looked at existing art work, such as the poppies currently being showcased at the Tower of London.  To create their sculptures, the children thought about the values linked to Remembrance Day such as: respect, hope, love, peace and sacrifice.  When the children arrived, they were given the opportunity to present their sculpture to Reverend Stephenson and other members of the church.  After, they were given a tour of the church and were shown the images in the stained glass windows.  It was a lovely end to our community topic and gave the children the opportunity to reflect, and pay respect to those that fought in the war.
