Year 5 - Branch 6 - Dialogue and Encounter

In Year 5, children explore the Bible as a living dialogue between God and humanity, discovering how its diverse books—written across centuries—form one inspired story of faith. They'll compare Jewish and Christian interpretations of Scripture, learning to respect different understandings while seeing how Catholics read the Old Testament through the lens of Christ. The unit also deepens their encounter with Judaism through Hebrew language, Torah scribal traditions, and sacred objects like the mezuzah—connecting faith to daily practice.
