Infant RE Matters Conferences for 2025
Infant RE Matters exists to give Newham children a place where they can explore spirituality through interfaith learning. Every school has the opportunity to send six pupil representatives from Year 2 and a member of staff to an Infant RE Matters one day conference. These one day conferences provide schools with evidence of:
- Promoting dialogue and understanding between children of differing religions and non-religious worldviews, backgrounds and cultures, supporting collaborative work
- Contributing to community benefit, as it has been developed from real children’s concerns and interests. It seeks to address these concerns as well as empower them in solving problems and creating advice for schools.
2025 Conference
In the summer term 2025 we will be running these one day conferences once again. Our theme will be 'Respect & Compassion' and we will be using P4C and learning about what different religions and world views have to say about 'living respectfully in community'.
2020 Conference
In the summer term 2020 we will be running these one day conference once again. Our theme will be 'peace' and we will be using P4C and learning about what different religions and world views have to say about 'hope'.
2018 Conference
In our summer term 2018 our theme will be ‘Fundamental British Values’, we will be using Philosophy for children (P4C) to engage pupils with this theme. The children will go on to learn what different religions as well as secular world views think about tolerance and mutual respect. It will give the children opportunities to express their thinking creatively through the use of the arts.
