As part of our learning in Religious Education, Year 3 were delighted to welcome Canon Simon, who helped us deepen our understanding of the different parts of the Mass.
Canon Simon showed the children some of the important items used during Mass, including the chalice, host and Bible, explaining their significance and how they are used in worship. The children were fascinated to learn about the different vestments worn by priests and what their colours represent throughout the Church's year.
We also learnt some new words from Latin, Greek and Aramaic that are used in the Mass and had the opportunity to ask Canon Simon lots of thoughtful questions during a fantastic Q&A session.
A huge thank you to Canon Simon for such an interesting and informative visit, which really helped bring our RE learning to life!
