Hindu Prayer and Worship

In our RE lessons this half term, we are learning all about Hinduism.  Today, we have been looking at Hindu worship, which is called Puja.  Hindus try to worship every day, either at the temple or at home.  Many Hindu families have a special area, or shrine, in their home for worship. 

Today, the children found out about some of the rituals and artefacts that Hindus might use in their daily prayers.  We were very lucky to be able to borrow a selection of artefacts for the children to explore.  Everyone enjoyed ringing the bell!  

We thank Mrs Smith for very kindly loaning us her Puja tray and model deities, which helped to bring the lesson to life for the children.
