Year 6 Boys Football - Champions of the City

Thu 19 May 2016

After some terrific performances at the King Power Stadium, ARH have been crowned Leicester School’s League Division 1 Champions 2016! The boys thoroughly deserved it after putting in months of effort and grinding through two initial league stages earlier in the year before arriving at yesterday’s grand final! With so much to play for, the boys were keen to bring their A-game to the home of the Premier League Champions and they did not disappoint! Captain Lewis Smith-Barnacle stated that he was “Filled up with joy,” upon raising the cup in front of what was close to 1,000 spectators!

It wasn’t all plain sailing however as a dreaded penalty shootout was needed to win the semi-final but great composure was shown by Harry Howkins before Tom Barsby (Co-Vice Captain) stepped up and slotted away the decider despite later explaining that he was tremendously nervous! Kian (Co-Vice Captain) stated, “I was overwhelmed by the cacophony of noise,” and it was fitting that the squad achieved this magnificent feat in front of such an audience. Well done to everyone, the team, coaches and supporters!

RE Week 2016

RE Week 2016

Alderman Richard Hallam Primary School celebrated R.E. on the week beginning 21^st March 2016. The aim of the week was to raise the profile of R.E. across the school, learn about a main religion and involve the children in some cross-curricular activities. We used the theme 'Why should we care?' throughout the school and each year group thought about this question from the point of view of a specific religion.

Reception/Year 1 focused on Christianity
Year 2 focused on Hinduism
Year 3 focused on Sikhism
Year 4 focused on Judaism
Year 5 focused on Islam
Year 6 focused on Buddhism

One of the main aims of the week was also to develop attitudes of tolerance and understanding of the beliefs and customs of others and to enrich the children’s knowledge in order to enable them to live and work with fellow citizens of diverse religions, language and ethnic origins.

Activities over the week promoted the children to learn about how each religion values the importance of caring for those around them and for the environment. The activities involved doing research, creating presentations, learning songs, art work and getting creative.

Tom Hind from Trinity Life Church also be visited the school during the week to talk about Easter and its importance. The assembly was egg-citing to say the least!

Throughout the week the children showed great interest and enthusiasm and personal engagement in the topics they were learning about. They were very curious about the background and stories of the religions and images and they had many questions they wanted to further explore.

A massive thank you to all parties involved that made this week such an enjoyable experience.
