We discussed how important Holy Week is to Christians. We thought about the last supper and how the disciples and Jesus felt. We reflected on how we treat others.

I think the rule: treat others how you want to be treated is a very important rule and Jesus really showed it. I think the quote : love one another how I loved you is a very inspirational quote

Holy week is so important to christians because it is a good rememberance time of the week that shows that Jesus was a great person and died on the cross for humanity and to save our sins.

Jesus says that we should treat each other as we would wish to be treated so that everyone is treated fairly and equally.

We discussed how important Holy Week is because it is when Jesus died for our sins. This means that all the bad choices humans made were forgiven, so that we could continue living our lives happily.

We are preparing to share our Easter Service with St James on Friday and have been thinking about how Easter shows joy, sadness then joy. The first part of the story, as in the video is full of joy.

We agreed as a class that we should all respect and treat other as we wish to be treated ourself . As Jesus said we should love and care for each other . Holy week is important.

We have been talking about the Easter story. We waved some palm leaves while we spoke about Palm Sunday and we thought about the Last Supper. We talked about Jesus sharing the bread and wine with his friends.

We have enjoyed watching your blog about Easter. We have been learning about the Easter story in our class. We think that forgiving Judas was a very brave thing for Jesus to do.

We reenacted Palm Sunday in our classroom and made palm leaves. We talked about how the people would have felt as Jesus arrived and why they shouted Hosanna.

Holy Week is important and some of the traditions like making crosses from palm leaves help us to remember Jesus riding into Jerusalem. The last supper is very significant.

Some of the symbols of Holy Week include palms, bread and wine, the cross and washing the feet. In the Last Super, Jesus gave his disciples a great lesson by washing their feet: he wants us to love others the way he loves us.

Some of the traditions for Holy Week include making crosses made from palm leaves to remember Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey and also carrying out a Holy Communion ceremony.

We enjoyed finding out about Palm Sunday and the last supper. We will try to be kind and love each other just like Jesus did.

The story showed that Jesus came in peace through love and sacrifice. This week we've learnt the importance of caring for everyone, trying to get along with everyone and looking out for each other. This makes the world a better place to live.

L4 - Bishop Bridgeman

We discussed the question 'Why is Holy week so important to Christians?'. Some of our ideas include that it signifies resurrection, forgiveness, hope and the representation that you should never give up on what you believe in.

U1 Bishop Bridgeman

We discussed how holy week is important to Christians. It teaches us about Jesus' sacrifice for all of us. It teaches us not to take things for granted.

U2 Bishop Bridgeman

Thank you for the assembly, it made us think about how we should treat each other. Muhammad thinks that the disciples felt sad and upset because Jesus would die. Hamza said that Judas betrayed Jesus because he wanted money.

L2 Bishop Bridgeman

Holy Week teaches us to be kind, forgiving and understanding of people around us. We believe it teaches us to make sacrifices to better the lives of others in a selfless act.

Bishop Bridgeman M3

It was interesting to learn about the last supper that Jesus had with his disciples. We learnt that Jesus washed the feet of his disciples to show that everyone is equal. We agreed that everybody should be treated equally.

M2, Bishop Bridgeman

We learned that we should treat everyone with the same love and respect. We learned that Jesus said we should love each other as we do ourselves and try to show it all the time.
