Monday 23 rd September


We have been very busy in class learning about Christenings and this week we are going to write a letter to our local vicar Reverend Sue telling her about everything we have learnt.

Please can you spend time this week talking about Christenings and in particular address the following questions:
What is a Christening or baptism?
Where does it take place?
Why is a child christened?
Where does it happen?
What happens during the ceremony?
What is a font?
Why is a candle lit and given?  What are the symbols on the candle?
What are godparents?
I'm sure the children will surprise you with how much they know!!!

Either scan the codes below or use the website addresses which will take you directly to two short videos on baptism which you may like to share with your child.
or


The spellings for this week are: all, some, one, where, could
