Plasticine cut and rolled, flannels folded, beads tied onto string, stickers packed, and Trinity Church decorated and prepared – our brilliant volunteers have been amazing as they have worked alongside us to make sure that we are able to deliver our annual Experience Easter event to hundreds of local children either online in their schools or in person in Trinity Church.

Experience Easter will run in Trinity Church for two weeks, ending on Friday 22nd March, with schools taking part online in the run up to the Easter holidays at the end of the month.

In addition to all the hours of preparation, our volunteer storytellers will continue to support us during the event as they share a simple, scripted story with groups of primary school children and help them take an active part in the stories in lots of different ways, from writing their hopes and dreams onto palm crosses to working their way through their angry and fearful thoughts using plasticine.

“Hundreds of children will take part in Experience Easter this year thanks to the time and skills given so generously by our dedicated and caring volunteers and we are so very thankful for all that they do,” Nicola Williams, Education Development Officer.

Look out for photos and feedback from the event later this month.
