         <description><![CDATA[<p>We have been learning all about Hanukkah in our RVE lessons. We have also been learning about different religions and festivals of light. Our younger pupils have been making diva lamps for Diwali. We also have assemblies where we learn about different religions. We prepare for our Christmas shows by learning about the Nativity and singing Christmas carols.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>We have an idea about having a carousel in class where different groups learn about a different religion on each table and move around the room. We would love to be able to take a trip around the world to explore other religions but this is obviously not practical, so instead we think school trips to local places of worship to explore different religions would be good. We would love to try different foods associated with different religions.</p>]]></description>
