ACTIVITY 1: WELL DRESSING (by Stefanie Creer)


A well dressing is a very old Derbyshire tradition. People make pictures of scenes from the Bible with flowers. The flowers are sunk into clay. These pictures are then placed by the village well and the priest says a prayer to bless the well, asking God to ensure we always have fresh water.

SUMMER TIME!

Summer time and summer holidays are here! In Spain children finish the school on June the 21st, and then we'll have two free months! But before that, we want to learn some English summer traditions, and of course, we'll say a "see you soon" to our friends.

Both English and Spanish children made some Easter eggs, but they were not made of chocolate!

               

                

ACTIVITY 3: "BAJADA DEL ANGEL" DRAWINGS

After receiving the English Easter cards, Spanish children made some drawings about our typical tradition and we sent them to England.
