RE in Year 2 - Lent

-

We started our new topic - Lent - by celebrating Ash Wednesday Mass together in the hall, led by Fr Paul. 

Today we were reminded of the importance of Palm Sunday.

We read the scripture (Mark 11 v 1-11) and discussed the events, including the crowd's reaction to Jesus entering on a donkey. We then thought about why they cried 'Hosanna!'

As a reminder, we made our own palm leaves before acting out the story.



Hosanna means joy and happiness!

It was how they praised Jesus.

The palm leaves are burnt at a special church service. The ashes will be saved until next year.
