Father Thompson visited year 4 to talk about our unit question ‘Lent and why it is important to Christians’. We learnt that Lent starts on Ash Wednesday, lasts for 40 days (excluding Sundays), and ends on Good Friday. Lent is important to Christians as it is a time when Christians can prepare for the celebrations of Easter by reflecting on their behaviour over the last year and finding ways to live a life based on the teaching of Jesus. It was lovely to be able to ask Father Thompson questions and look at some of the artefacts that he brought with him.
