On Monday, the Year 5 children will be attending Telford Mosque. This trip has been set up through our link with Hollinswood Multicultural Service and has been planned to follow up on the Year 5 Beliefs and Values topic of Islam.
During the visit, the children will have an opportunity to explore the Mosque, making comparisons between the building and a Christian church, ask questions to the Imam and also be able to make links between the classroom-based learning they have done and what this looks like in reality. This is a really exciting opportunity for the children and one we are very much looking forward to.
For the upcoming visit to the mosque, the children will be required to come to school prepared with the following:
- School uniform is appropriate for visiting the mosque however as much skin as possible needs to be covered. For example: tights to be worn, leggings, jumpers/cardigans (down to wrists).
- All children are required to wear a head covering: girls are required to wear a scarf to cover their hair. Boys are required to bring a hat or cap to cover their hair also.
