Homework due date Tuesday 4th June

In RE we have been learning about the Kingdom of God and how ‘we’ can help build the Kingdom of God.

We looked at Nelson Mandela; how he showed the gospel values in his life and how he helped to build the Kingdom of God. We also discussed how we can use Nelson Mandela as an example and also like him, help to build the Kingdom of God.

Homework this week is to design a poster about Nelson Mandela and how he helped to build the Kingdom of God. Remember to include the gospel values and pictures to make your poster stand out!

Thank you
