PLEASE read: Royal wedding roleplay and PC.debate!!

Hi everyoen! I have a quick question for you. I currently work in a Private Day Nursery and in April as the pre-school supervisor I decided I wanted to look at the Royal Wedding with the children; we are going to make invitations for CLL and crowns for KUW and commemorative plates for CD and so on. However when it comes to role play area I really want to turn it into an alter for the children to play getting married etc. The alter would be church based but not go into much details..basic alter candles etc. Thr main point would be for the children to play at getting married not necessarily learn about the church itself. However, a member of staff who is catholic finds this role play idea offensive?? As she says we shouldn't impose religion on the children and teach them to play in churches. Now we are a multicultural setting and look at all the religions as we made eid cards and divali lanterns to which she has no problem doing. Does anybody else not agree with the RP idea? Sorry its a long one !!
