RE is taught once a week across the school. We visit our local church, Deepcar St John's at Christmas for our Junior 
Carol Service and at Harvest time. At our Harvest service we bring food collected at school, kindly donated beforehand by parents and families of our children. All the food collected is donated to the Stocksbridge Food Bank which is run by The Hub Church on the High Street.
Collective worship takes place at St John's every day except Fridays when it is our special 'Sparkle and Shine' and birthday assembly. A regular visitor is Reverend Hilda Issacson, who joins us with her friends from church to act out a story from The Children's Bible in their Open the Book assemblies.
Easter is a major date in the Christian calendar and is celebrated in many ways across the school. The Easter story is our main study in our RE lessons and assemblies during the Easter period. This Easter, the children joined Mrs Cordle for a special collective worship, where she led the children on a journey through Holy Week. Learning how on Palm Sunday, Jesus’ followers cheer him as he enters Jerusalem, laying their cloaks on the ground for Jesus’ as he rode through the streets on his donkey.
Please see the attached RE Curriculum overview document at the bottom of this page to see what each year group will be learning in RE each term.
