Ramadan

Ramadan

During the month of Ramadan, Muslims won't eat or drink during the hours of daylight. This is called fasting. Children are not expected to fast until they reach the age of around 13/14. However, one of the children in Year 4 has made the incredibly mature choice to fast this year. We are all very proud of Mikaeel's dedication and I am really pleased with how supportive the class has been with him during this time. 

Today, Mikaeel decided to challenge Year 4 to resist temptation just like he must do every day. He placed sweets into small envelopes with everyone's name on them and told everyone that they must try to resist temptation until 7.36PM (the time of sunset today).

Hopefully, everyone is able to resist in support of Mikaeel!
