Celebrating Together - Easter and Iftar

During the run up to Easter, many of our families have been observing the holy month of Ramadan. 
We have been looking for signs of new life in our garden and some children know the egg represents new life. Some children listened to the story of the Last Supper. 
We have also been talking about Ramadan and what that means for Muslims around the world. Many children were able to talk about their own experiences, some children knew that family members were fasting. 

We celebrated with a symbolic Last Supper and Iftar with the children. They helped to bake and prepare some drinks to share. 
Children sat together,  shared the food and drink and talked with their friends.
The Easter Bunny also visited our garden and the children went on an egg hunt!
​
Happy Easter if you are celebrating and Ramadan Mubarak if you are observing.
