The Year Of St. Joseph And RE Shining Stars

During our RE lessons this week we discussed how the people turned against Jesus.

On Palm Sunday we witnessed people waving palms and desperate to see Jesus, but by Good Friday the people are shouting for Jesus to be crucified. Pupils used props to remind themselves of the different characters.

Can you spot any of the people Jesus met by looking at the prop?

Junior 3 are preparing to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation in a few weeks. This week we made up bubble prayers to think about the people we love and care for.

Junior 4 found out about the different implements used at Mass. They impressed Mrs Jackson-Mayne and Mrs Simmonds with their knowledge of the Consecration and the Eucharist.

J3 And J4 Solve The Easter Egg Hunt Code

The children in Junior 3 and Junior 4 enjoyed a special Easter Egg hunt on the last day of the Lent Term. They took turns outside in their class bubbles looking for eggs and solving questions to crack the code that unlocked a special Easter message. The sun shone gloriously and they all took part enthusiastically. It was a lovely end of term activity that the children really enjoyed.

Super Easter Hand Sewn Cards

Before Easter Junior 3S made beautiful Easter cards to give to their family and friends over the Easter weekend.

They used a template of a cross on the front of the card to remember that Jesus died for us before deciding how to decorate it. They then very carefully sewed around the edge taking the time to outline the cross beautifully. The children then wrote ‘He Is Risen’ clearly across the top and included their messages inside for their families.

It was a wonderful creative activity that allowed them all to reflect on what Jesus did for us and why we celebrate Easter every year.
