We explored various elements of the Buddhism religion, including religious values, key beliefs, key symbols and artefacts and we learned the Story of Buddha. 8A participated in an array of activities across the week including crafts of symbols, watching videos, handling artefacts, using their iPads to conduct research and using their iPads to re-create and re-tell the Story of Buddha. Well Done 8A!
