This project will develop learners' knowledge and understanding of
Christian behaviours by learning about the work and lives of a few
inspirational Scottish Christians. The topic requires the learners
to work independently and as part of a team on a variety of audio,
visual and kinaesthetic activities which will integrate various
areas of the curriculum. Ultimately, the learners will receive the
opportunity to apply what they have learned throughout the project,
in a real-life context when they are required to work together, to
organise and manage a fundraising event which will benefit those
less fortunate than themselves.
