Year 5 – The Easter Journey
12th March 2025 (09:00 - 13:00) Return to Calendar
The children will learn about why we celebrate Easter. They will take part in a journey to discover things that happened during the week of Jesus’ death. Through role-play, storytelling and listening they will travel through the palm-waving celebrations in Jerusalem of Palm Sunday, take part in the last supper, listen in on what happened in the Garden of Gethsemane and hear about Jesus’ cruel death on the cross on Good Friday. They will experience for themselves some of the emotions felt by those who knew Jesus well. They will then go on to discover what happened three days later, on the very first Easter morning, when the tomb was found to be empty!
We will be taking the children on the public bus service, we will leave school at 9.30am and will return around lunchtime.
Please send your child to school with a packed lunch on this day.
