Easter Mystery

By

On the last day of term, children in EYFS and KS1 will be given a copy of The Easter Story to share with their families at home.  KS2 children will be given a copy of the Stations of the Cross, with images drawn by the Mini Vinnies, to take home to share with their families also.

By sharing the Easter story and the Passion of Christ, we remember the life, death and resurrection of Jesus.  As a family, please take time to stop and think about the true meaning of Easter.

We wish you all a happy, healthy and holy Easter!

Reception Visit the Discovery Museum

We had great fun exploring the museum, going on a toy hunt and participating in a workshop where we got the opportunity to handle a range of old and new toys. We then had to be toy detectives and solve clues to find the hidden toys around the museum! What a lovely way to end our topic!
