We read the story about Jesus sharing his

 LAST SUPPER with his friends.

We prayed to God and thanked

Him for Jesus our Saviour.

 We prayed for our family and friends.

We shared flat bread and grape juice.

  💜GOD LOVES ALL OF US 💜

We have been learning about Holy Week

 Jesus washed his friends feet because 

He loved them.

We washed each others feet to show that we care and love each other.

The water had lavender oil in it and 

it smelt really nice.

You may have noticed two gorgeous 

new faces in Room 2.

We have Te Wani 😄 

who is Mrs Rihari's nephew.

We also have Miss Tai who will be working in our class until the end of Term 1. 

Miss Tai is training to be a teacher and we feel very blessed to have her join our

 Room 2 family.

Welcome to Room 2 Te Wani.

We are so excited to have you join our

 Holy Cross family 😄

The children asked Te Wani lots 

of fantastic questions. 

Te Wani, you confidently and happily answered all our questions. 

We know your favourite colour is RED, 

your favourite dinosaur is a T.Rex and 

you love your mummy a lot 💗

We looked at a palm from Palm Sunday and then we made our own palms for our special 
Easter Liturgy this Thursday.

You had fun making palms with your 

new friends Callum and Khalid.

Jesus prayed to God and so do we.

Here is a special prayer we have 

been learning in class.

We decorated our prayer and then 

rubbed it with a tea bag, to make it look 

old like a scroll 😃

We are learning about how Jesus 

had fun as a little boy.

We think he liked to play hide and seek 

and play tag with his friends just like us.

We think Jesus went on 

treasure hunts too.

We went on a treasure hunt 

around school.

 Oops, sorry about the finger in the photo! 😄

 We saw treasures we could eat (feijoas), 

we heard treasures (birds, children, cicadas, the wind rustling in the trees),

we felt the grass between our fingers  and  found treasures to bring back to class (feathers, bark, leaves, sticks)

In class we put all our treasures together.

Callum had the idea to put all 

the treasures in the shape of a cross.

We all thought that was a great idea.
