On Tuesday 11th March we visited St Etheldreda’s Church. We walked to and from the church and during the walk we looked at the different buildings and how they looked different due to being built many years ago. We used good communication and language skills when explaining the similarities and differences from past houses to newly built houses today.
When we arrived at the church, Reverend Indira spoke to us about some of the different features you find in a church. For example, we sat on the pews when we were listening, we saw many crosses around the church, we found the font that is located at the front of the church by the doors, and also the church organ. We enjoyed having a good look around the church and the church grounds, exploring the different grave stones and looking at the years on them. Before leaving and heading back to school, we got into groups of three and took it in turns to work together to pull the rope to make the church bell chime. We needed to use our gross motor strength when pulling down hard on the rope.
