In Year 1 we have been learning about Spring time and how new life can sprout and flourish at this time of year. We looked at a range of seeds and marvelled at how such a tiny thing can create something that we can eat or admire! We then planted some seeds in our teams and made sure to give them the right conditions to help them grow- they are watered, on a windowsill for the light and warmth!

At the end of the session, we talked about how Easter occurs in spring time too and how we can compare some of the events of the Easter story with the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus died on the cross and, like a seed, was enclosed into the Earth/tomb. After some time, Jesus came back to life (resurrection) and ascended into Heaven, just like how the seed will germinate, sprout shoots and grow into something new!
