RE

Today we explored the concept of fairness and justice through the Sikh story of Bandi Chhor Divas.

Children said:

'The Guru was sent to prison because Chandu was jealous of their friendship- this was wrong.'   

'The Guru helped the other prisoners despite what had happened to him.This was his act of kindness.' 

'He was still fair towards the other people and shared his food with them.'
