“I am the Good Shepherd; I know my own and my own know me”. John 10:14"
During this branch of learning, children will explore the meaning of Lent and Easter through simple and engaging activities. They will learn that Lent is a time for caring for others, a season of reflection, and a time for helping those in need, following Jesus’ example. They will hear the story of Jesus' death on Good Friday and his resurrection on Easter Sunday, understanding that Easter is a celebration of new life and Jesus' continued presence with us. The children will also recognize key symbols of Lent and Easter, such as the color purple for Lent, the cross, and Easter eggs, as well as cultural traditions like hot cross buns and Easter gardens. They will reflect on the importance of the Great Commandment—to love God and love others—and how this calls us to care for those who need help, both locally and around the world. Through activities like learning about the rights and responsibilities that come with having what we need, children will explore how they can act with kindness and compassion during Lent and beyond, following Jesus’ example of love and service to others.
