Easter Experience

The School hall was transformed by members of St John's Church and Mrs Sadowski in the week building up to Easter, for the 2010 Easter Experience.

Children came into the hall in small groups and moved around the different activities. Below are some photographs from the week.

The Easter Experience was also featured in the Bath and Wells Dioscesan Newsletter, which is sent to all Church of England Schools, and below is an extract taken from the newsletter:

"During the week, the hall was transformed with the help of some members of the congregation from St John's Church who then helped to lead the stations. Every child in the school went through the "Experience" and the atmosphere was breathtaking. Every child was engaged and affected by the stations - in fact the volunteers thanked me for the opportunity to be part of it, and one spoke of the hall as feeling "anointed" - a very special time for all concerned. Every member of staff was involved in some way, including kitchen staff and cleaners. Some parents and governors also contributed, and the congregation prayed for us in church the preceding Sunday. Station leaders met for prayer the week before at my home, then we prayed before each session. The children spoke of feeling calm, relaxed, and "as if Jesus was there." It was a wonderful way to enter into Holy Week at a level appropriate for Primary age children.'
