Judaism

On the Friday before half term we visited the Jewish Museum in Manchester. At the museum we began by talking about what sacred means for both Jews and Catholics. Throughout the morning we complete various activities such as becoming museum detectives, finding sacred Jewish objects. We learnt and tried on various sacred items of clothing (kippah, tallit, teffilin). Finally we learnt about the Ark and the Torah as some children opened the Ark and took out an example of the Torah.

 Below is a copy of the play script for The Story of Purim, which the group also performed for Class Larch:

    Thank you Jancey.
    This is what we especially enjoyed at the Manchester Museum:
    Taking out the Torah Scrolls (Hannah & Finlay)
    Wearing the kippah (Luke)
    Wearing both the tallit and the teffilin (Luca)
    Being a detective in the museum (Jolie)
    Designing my own kippah (Theo)
    Seeing the Hebrew language (Megan)
    Writing my name in Hebrew (Logan)
