In RE this week, Year 5 were looking at how the Bible has been translated into over 7000 different languages. We started by discussing what we thought the word ‘translate’ means, why does it need to be translated and if the children thought it would be easy to translate. Following this we watched two video clips. One was about how the Bible used to be banned in China but a man named Robert Morrison spent 25 years translating it so that as many people could access it as possible. The Bible Society now distribute all over China with members of the church walking for several hours just to access a Sunday Service .
