Editing to add the response I put in the comments about the Religion test -

You only have to know about the first three commandments showing love of God and the last seven showing loving others. You do also need to know the Great Commandment and the new commandment Jesus gave on the cross.

You do not need to know the ten commandments now as we will be doing each one individually in the next 10 lessons.Wednesday Homework -
