The lesson began with an engaging PowerPoint presentation outlining the key elements of baptism, using simple language and colourful illustrations. The slides highlighted the significance of water, the Holy Spirit, the baptismal candle, and the anointing with oil, all presented in a way that was easy for young children to understand. It included opportunities for the children to participate by asking questions and sharing any experiences they had witnessed with baptisms in their families.
Following the PowerPoint presentation, the class participated in a short, fun role-play exercise where the children acted out a baptism. This hands-on activity helped solidify their understanding of the sacrament. The children took turns playing different roles: priest, parents, godparents, and the baby being baptised. Inspectors praised the lesson for its creativity, engagement, and the children’s evident enjoyment.
