Islam and I
KS2
Pupils will be engrossed in practical activities such as collage creating and making art to take home that is inspired by Muslim contributions to our lives. An ideal workshop to give more balanced information and present positive images of a faith that has been much maligned in the media. This workshop has been created with our friends from Muslim Engagement And Development (MEND.)
“Activities were well prepared. Children were very engaged and on task. Good to question perceptions/differences/ similarities between people.”
