Year 1 have been thinking about “how values provide rules for living”… but first we needed to find out what values actually were.  

“Values are group of things that are important – such as honesty, good manners, kindness, determination.”

Many values come from holy books, like – the Bible which is a sacred text. 

We looked at 10 Commandments last week and this week we listened to the story of The Good Samaritan, which is a story from the Bible. 

The children were shocked that people just walked by the injured man, and that the good Samaritan (although he had different beliefs) was the only one to help.

We discussed hat we would do and how we would always help others when needed, it is important to remember that although we may have different beliefs and different gods, places of worship and bibles – we should be kind to everyone regardless of this.
