Primary

Fifty children from Years 3-4 participated in a series of visits to Bradford Mandir. They enjoyed seeing some of the colourful and symbolic Hindu deities.

Pupils explore and investigate aspects of religious practice in a mosque and cathedral and ask questions about the deities in the mandir.

The art and music workshops explored symbols and meaning in the three Abrahamic faiths, and concluded with an exhibition and performance at the end.

Pupils were able to experience listening to music in the diwan, eating food in the langar at the gurdwara, writing Hebrew and examining Jewish artefacts.

Pupils visited Ripon Cathedral and Fountains Abbey, engaging in dialogue about faith and belief both within and across faith boundaries.

The aim was for pupils to understand shared values and to have an opportunity for spiritual development by including time for reflection in two places.
