Interfaith Week w/c 10.11.25
A part of Interfaith Week, Beech Class looked at the 5 Ks of Sikhism - 5 objects worn by Sikhs which symbolise important parts of their faith and their lives.
Beech Class leared what these symbolise and had a go at wearing the 5 Ks.
Kirpan: A dagger that symbolises being ready to protect good and fight evil.
Kechera: Shorts that symbolise adopting new ideas and replacing old ones.
Kara: A steel bangle that represents God having no beginning and no end.
Kesh: Not cutting the hair, to represent their faith, that it will keep growing and not be cut down.
Kanga: A wooden comb, to symbolise staying clean, tidy and organised, as they do with their long hair.
