Mrs Seeley and our Faith Advocates organised a very special day for the whole
school today – and it was thoroughly enjoyed by all!!
The morning started with an Act of Worship and this looked at the Easter Story
starting at Palm Sunday – the children had to put the huge pictures into order.
The children were then split into groups containing children from each class and
they spent 30 minutes doing 8 different activities. The majority of the
activities focused on our senses and linked them to different events which took
place during Holy Week. For instance the children got to taste Hot Cross Buns
(Good Friday) and Easter Eggs (Easter Sunday). The smelt palm leaves (Palm
Sunday) and wood shavings (Good Friday) and felt things in \’feely bags\’ all
related to the Easter Story. Other activities included the design of crosses and
a \’Pass the Parcel\’ where the prizes were sweets – an also Bible Quotes which
needed to be put into order! An amazing day which we hope the children will
remember for a very long time to come!!
