-Describe examples of ways in which people use texts/sources of wisdom to make sense of Christmas festivities. 

-Give varied meanings for the Christmas bible stories. 

-Make clear connections between what Christians believe about Jesus and how they remember and celebrate his birth. 

-Consider and weigh up how ideas about Christmas relate to their own experiences of ‘big days’ that come round once a year and express insights of their own into the value of celebration.
