All About Easter

Why Do We Celebrate Easter?

We celebrate Easter because of the Jewish people’s belief in Jesus being raised back to life on Easter Sunday. Today Easter is celebrated in many countries including New Zealand.

What Is The Relevance of Hot Cross Buns and Easter Eggs?

The hot cross bun represents the cross that Jesus was crucified on and the Easter egg represents new life.

What is Good Friday?

Good Friday is the day that most Jewish people think that Jesus was crucified on.

What is Easter Sunday?

Easter Sunday is the day that Jesus rose again. This is the main day of the Easter holiday.

Do You Have Any Easter Traditions in your family?
