RE
This week the children have continued their learning all about the religion of Judaism, where they created posters to show the golden rule. In Judaism golden rule is often expressed as ‘What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbour’ (Hillel, Talmud Shabbat 31a) and for Christians it is often summed up as 'Do to others as you would have them do to you’ Matthew 7:12 or ‘Love your neighbour as yourself’ (Luke 10:27).
