Easter Journey - Year 5

On Monday, Year 5 walked to Knebworth to spend the afternoon at St Martin’s Church, learning through practical activities about the festival of Easter.

During the workshop, the children had an opportunity to hear from Christians about their belief in the teachings and miracles of Jesus and the events that happened in Holy Week, starting with Palm Sunday.

After watching a film about Jesus arriving in Jerusalem to the praise of the crowds, they talked about The Last Supper, and the events of Good Friday. They explored why Christians believe Jesus was crucified and resurrected, finally planting sunflower seeds to take home and nurture, representing new life and hope.
