Year 10 Waltham Abbey GCSE RS Trip

Pupils in Year 10 who are studying GCSE Religious Studies visited Waltham Abbey Church today to have a tour and talk by Rev Sarah. She explained the religious significance of the altar and how it links to The Last Supper, how light is represented in Christianity, the history of the church itself and how beliefs about Jesus are explained through religious artefacts. Pupils then had a chance to explore beliefs such as the afterlife in a rare medieval painting in The Lady Chapel. Year 10 asked philosophical questions about Original Sin, Free Will and faith and belief.
