This afternoon in R.E,  Year 3 have started a new topic all about harvest celebrations. We're exploring why communities around the world, and Christians in particular, celebrate the harvest. The children have been reflecting on some big questions, such as:
Why do communities celebrate the harvest?
What exactly is being celebrated at this time of year? We've had some wonderful discussions about the children’s own experiences of harvest festivals, whether at church, school, or within their own communities. They've shared what they already know and have come up with some fantastic questions that we'll be exploring together in the coming lessons.
