As part of the Easter unit in RE this half term, Year 4 had the opportunity to visit St Lawrence’s Church and take part in Ash Wednesday, Lent and Easter related activities.

“We used oil and palm leaves to make a cross on our forehead. When Christians do this they are forgiven for any sins they have done.” Sienna

“We put ribbons on a rope and wrote down our hopes and dreams on butterflies.” Luka

“We shared bread and thought about Jesus sharing bread with his disciples at the last supper.” James

“We wrote down things that we are thankful for onto crosses and then stuck them to the wall.” Isla

The children really enjoyed their visit and we’d just like to say a big thank Adam and all of the volunteers at St Lawrence’s for organising and hosting the activities.
