Funky RE song - by Mrs Hardwick's Y9

Lyrics: Funky RE song

Wake up in the morning do some meditation

I’ll relax watch my breath and loose all my frustration

Got my Buddha got my karma Got my sanga too

I aint rich I aint poor and what about you

Back in world war two two

Hitler killed the jews jews

And lots of others too too

Holocaust- genocide done by gassing

Also starving and shooting

He sure made them suffer

RE it’s a breeze

We can learn about beliefs

Our views, ways of life

Where we go after we die

Come on join the song

We can make our lessons fun now

WOAH-OH-OH etc.

Wake up in the morning and say my prayers

Put on my Hijab, im out the door I’m going to hit this mosque

Believe in Allah and Muhammad PBUH

Cos when I leave for  Mecca I become a changed man

I’m talking am I live or dead dead

Is this in my head head

When all is done and said said

I’m seeing dogs they are wearing glasses

And stick on moustaches

Are they people too

RE it’s a breeze

We can learn about beliefs

Our views, ways of life

Where we go after we die

Come on join the song

We can make our lessons fun now

WOAH-OH-OH etc.

Do you believe in life

After we die

In love? In god

Eternal/

Satanist, Jews

Pagans, Hindus

Buddhists, Christian

We’re all human

Is money more, important than

Your friends

And those who love you

Give yourself up

Never give in

NEVER GIVE IN!!!

RE it’s a breeze

We can learn about beliefs

Our views, ways of life

Where we go after we die

Come on join the song

We can make our lessons fun now

WOAH-OH-OH etc.

RE it’s a breeze

We can learn about beliefs

Our views, ways of life

Where we go after we die

Come on join the song

We can make our lessons fun now

WOAH-OH-OH etc.

Y9 Holocaust Art Competition: The Finalists

 We studied the Holocaust in Y9 and then the pupils had to produce a piece of Art work entitled 'Never Again'. They then needed to produce a write-up which fully explained the symbolic representation of their work, and also showed their understanding of the challenges the Holocaust created to the faith in G-d of (Jewish) believers. Each class submitted four of the best pieces of work and then Mr Abbott was told the RE assessment criteria, which he used to judge what he felt to be the winner. He spent a long time deliberating over which one to choose. In the end he chose...

1st place: Jamie Watt

This was immaculately created and the symbolic imagery of the Jewish Gold star surrounded menancingly with the swastikas like barbed wire was impressive. He had appreciated the desperation felt by many Jews and expressed in Psalm 22:1 'My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me, so far from my cries of anguish?' His write-up also supported this piece of work, explaining his representations. Mr Abbott said that it was a very poignant piece of work; The Nazi symbol is squeezing the life out of the Jewish people.

2nd place: Poem entitled; 'What would happen if there was no-one left?': by Sophie Marriott.

Mr Abbott parlicularly liked the link made between the Jewish faith and suffering.

3rd place: 'Swastika' By Sam Haigh. Mr Abbott liked the combination of personal stories and images.
