PSCHE

Today, we are starting off the week by thinking about peer pressure. Peer pressure is when you are influenced by someone in your group. Sometimes this can be positive, but  it can also be negative. In some situations, we know that doing something that a friend has suggested will be bad, however, we feel the need to impress them. This can put us in a tricky situation. In some cases, peers can try to persuade us to do dangerous things. We need to recognise this and not give in to peer pressure is it will put us/someone else at risk or if it will get us into trouble.

• How would you deal with peer pressure? 
• How does peer pressure make you feel?

RE

Last week, we considered how mass helps us consider our own actions and reflected on the introductory rite. 

This week, we are focusing on the communion rite. This part of the mass is based upon the Last Supper. 

 

What do you think these words mean? 

This is a brief summary: 

 

 

 

 

You have a choice of activities today: 

• Read the Lord’s Prayer line by line, formulating ideas about the meaning. Annotate your ideas around the prayer. 
• Using the phrases of the Our Father, think of ways in which these can be lived out by Christians today. 
• Write a prayer or poem about how peace and unity in the world might shape the lives of Christians.

A prayer for peace might be something like this:
