EYFS - The Magi

Lesson: Religious education

Class: EYFS (F2) Reception Year: 2024 - 2025

In RE this half term, the children in EYFS have been leanring all about The Magi. We have listened to the story in the Bible and made star headbands to help us remember.

Jesus was born in the town of Bethlehem. Soon afterwards, some men who studied the stars came from the East to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the baby born to be the king of the Jews? We saw his star when it came up in the east, and we have come to worship him.”

When they saw the star, how happy they were, what joy was theirs! It went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. They went into the house, and when they saw the child with his mother Mary, they knelt down and worshipped him. They brought out their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, and presented them to him.
