This term, Year One have been learning about the Easter story and why it is so important to Christians. They explored the events of Holy Week, discussing why Good Friday is called ‘good’ despite something sad happening.
The Last Supper
Good Friday
Easter Sunday
Cian – “I think that Christian’s call it Good Friday because Jesus forgave those who punished him.”
Isaac – “He showed courage because he died for us.”
Elsie – “Jesus showed compassion because he loved all of his friends.”
Through freeze frames, the children acted out key moments. Thinking about the emotions of those involved. They also linked Easter to our Christian values of perseverance, forgiveness and compassion, reflecting on how they show these in their own lives.
