Did you celebrate Holy Thursday?
What a fun Holy Thursday we all had today! Everyone learnt about the history and symbolism of hot cross buns and Easter eggs. They helped to bake a huge delicious hot cross bun in a bread maker and we shared it with one another like Jesus did with his disciples at the last supper.
Below is Jason's collage from our special day.
