On Tuesday 23rd February 2016 our Year 5 children visited the Mosque in Newcastle. This was the final lesson in a ten week series of lessons on Islam. The session was run by the IDC (Islamic Diversity Centre) which seeks to support teachers in delivering the curriculum. We were made very welcome and when we arrived we had a short workshop about the Five Pillars of Islam. The IDC staff were very impressed with the level of knowledge the children had. We then observed the Midday Prayer. After lunch we had a tour of the Mosque and met the Imam. The session was finished off with a quiz which was great fun.
