This Religion and worldviews video introduces teachers to the unit What makes us special? and supports children in exploring how people celebrate special times in different ways. The video prepares teachers to help children investigate Diwali and Christmas, learning about the stories, beliefs and traditions behind these festivals. It supports respectful understanding of cultural and religious diversity, and encourages children to reflect on their own special times, as well as the experiences of others.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Religion and Worldviews resources – celebrations. It provides essential teacher guidance for helping pupils achieve early learning goals, promoting curiosity, respect, and inclusive discussion about different beliefs and celebrations.
