RE Day

 What an amazing day learning all about stewardship. 

We began by looking at things that are precious to us and how we might treat them as well as what we do with precious things to keep them safe. 


We then had a debate about if it is right to look after other people’s belongings. This was hard to answer for some depending on whether it was their siblings items or not. 
Next, we watched a clip from Blue Planet raising awareness of pollution in the ocean. This led nicely onto our discussion how Muslims believe in creation and that we have been put on the planet to look after the Earth. Following this, the class looked at ways they could be good stewards. 
A really enjoyable and informative day.

The polar nights lasts for about 28 days and the midnight sun can last for 50 days.  The Earth is on an axis - 23.5 degrees. Which means that when the Earth is tilted away from the sun, there are parts of the northernmost points that do not receive any sun for parts. When the Earth is tilted towards the sun the northernmost points will receive sun most of the time.  This was quite a tricky concept to learn so the children used torches and a globe to act out how the tilt has an effect of the Earth.
