Easter

We celebrate Easter because Christians believe that Jesus died on

25 March {Good Friday}. On 27 March Mary came to see Jesus’s tomb where he was buried, finding it empty. The angel told Mary that he had risen. Good Friday is on the 25 March before Easter Sunday 27 March. Christians celebrate Good Friday because on Easter Jesus was risen.

 

A lot of people eat hot cross buns as a tradition on Good Friday. The cross on the bun is to represent the cross that Jesus died on. We have Easter eggs because when they are cracked open it is empty, like when Mary found Jesus tomb empty.

In the morning we go for a easter egg hunt and sometimes get a present. In the afternoon we eat our eggs.
