Happy Easter


We would like to tell you the story about Easter. Easter was a spring festival which was taken over by Christians to celebrate Christ’s death and resurrection. Jesus was ressurected from the dead three days, after his crucifixion . Christians celebrate this resurrection on Easter Day or Easter Sunday, two days after Good Friday and three days after Maundy Thursday.


How about the Easter Bunny and Easter Eggs then?

In legend, children make nests out of leaves, moss and grasses. Then they place these nests in their yard. They believe that during the night the Easter bunny will come and fill their nest with bright colored eggs, candy and toys to the homes of children on the night before Easter. The Easter Bunny will either put the baskets in a designated place or hide them somewhere in the house for the children to find when they wake up in the morning.

But nowadays the tradition is make the eggs out of chocolate.


Here at Kelt Jemursari also celebrate Easter, we had games and Easter egg hunt. The students love it very much because each off them got a chocolate egg for the present. It was a lot of fun…..


Happy Easter everyone.
