Today, Year 6 began their new RE topic exploring life as a journey. We started by watching a video of Bishop Phillip preparing for his own journey, reflecting on the importance of preparation. The children then began their own symbolic journey through Jack’s Key, considering the variety of life decisions we all face and how these shape our future. Along the way, the children explored different symbols, such as a bridge representing the helping hands we receive, a gate symbolising Jesus, smooth and rough paths reflecting life’s challenges and short or long routes to the same destination showing how there are many ways to achieve our goals. This gave the class a powerful introduction to the idea that our journey through life is full of choices, challenges and support, all of which guide us toward our future.
