Reception Role-play Presentation Of Jesus In The Temple

Reception dressed up to role-play the bible story of the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple in RE this week. The Presentation was forty days after Jesus was born when Mary and Joseph brought baby Jesus to the temple to present Him to God. In addition, we had Simeon who had waited a very long time for the arrival of the Son of God and Ana, who had worked in the temple day and night serving God. When she recognised baby Jesus, she immediately left the temple to tell everyone the good news of Jesus' birth. With a metre stick used as a crook for Simeon to protect him from age-old wobbles, a blue shawl for Mary and a cloak for Joseph, with Ana dressed in lace, the Reception children acted out their roles through the eyes of children with reflective understanding.

Jesus is baptised by John in the waters of the Jordan. Water is very important in baptism but also in everyday life. We think about all the ways we use water in our lives.
