Year 5- Come and See

Come and see in year 5!

This term in Come and See we will be learning all about continuing Jesus' mission

Our first topic encourages children to live out the values taught by Jesus and continue his mission by showing kindness, compassion, and respect to others. We learn about the importance helping those in need, and spreading the message of peace and love. Through acts of service, prayer, and reflection, Year 5 children are taught to embody Christ’s teachings in their daily lives, whether at school, at home, or in the wider community. 

We will explore memorial sacrifice

We will learn about the concept of memorial sacrifice, particularly in relation to the Eucharist and the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. They explore how the Mass is a memorial of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection, and how it brings believers together to remember and give thanks for his sacrifice. Through prayer, reflection, and learning about the importance of the sacrament, children understand that by participating in the Eucharist, they share in Jesus’ love and continue to honour his sacrifice. This understanding encourages them to live lives full of gratitude and love towards others, just as Jesus taught.

We will also be talking about giving 

Follwing on from this, we will learn about the significance of sacrifice, the season of Lent, and the celebration of Easter in the Catholic faith. We explore how Lent is a time for prayer and almsgiving, encouraging children to reflect on their own lives and make sacrifices to grow closer to God. Children will learn that Lent prepares Christians for the joy of Easter, when they celebrate the resurrection of Jesus and the hope it brings. Through reflection, acts of kindness, and personal sacrifice, we will learn how to embrace the spirit of Lent and live out the values of love, selflessness, and renewal during the Easter season.
