Easter and Holy Week  

Easter Assemblies

In the lead-up to Easter, each class took part in sharing the message of Holy Week and the Resurrection through special Easter assemblies performed for parents, carers and families.

The KS1 children beautifully retold the key events of Jesus’ final days—from Palm Sunday to the joy of Easter Sunday—through a combination of Scripture readings, drama, music and reflective prayer. KS2 classes explored Stations of the Cross.

These assemblies were a meaningful way for the children to deepen their understanding of the Easter story while sharing the Good News with our wider school community. We are incredibly proud of how reverently and confidently the children took on their roles, and we thank all families who joined us in this celebration of hope, love and new life.

Stations of the Cross

As part of our Lenten experience, the children created their own interactive Stations of the Cross journey. Each of the 14 classes from Reception to Year 6 took a station and were encouraged to be as creative as possible in exploring its significance in the Easter Story.

The atmosphere in the hall was one of reflection and respect, awe and wonder. We welcomed local parishioners and our parish priests, as well as parent’s afterschool. The hall was in darkness, lit by candle light with Taize music quietly playing in the background. It was beautiful to watch the children spending time reflecting and praying with their buddies.

This was a lovely way for us to mark the significance and sacrifice Jesus made and for the children to understand its importance.
