STUDENTS OF GD GOENKA SCHOOL LUCKNOW ENJOY EASTER CELEBRATION:-
Easter Day is celebrated as a joyous occasion and honors the resurrection of Jesus three days after his death by crucifixion. Easter is one of the most important celebrations in the Christian calendar. It is when Christians glorify and give thanks for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Non–religious celebrations include the tradition of Easter eggs, which represent fertility and birth, and the Easter bunny which delivers chocolates and sweets to kids on Sunday morning.
GD Goenka Public School, Lucknow celebrated Easter on 6 April 2023. Arrays of activities were planned for the pre-primary section of the school. Students of the Toddler and Pre- nursery played an Easter egg hunt game in which the students were supposed to find hidden eggs in the sand tray. Nursery students were supposed to find matching eggs of the same colour. These activities helped students build on their confidence, and eye-hand coordination and develop their gross motor skills. Students of Kindergarten created their own designs on Easter eggs enhancing their creative skills. The children of grade 1 enjoyed playing the Easter egg dice game. Each child made an Easter egg with the help of play dough and shared the eggs with their friends. This game enhanced the art of sharing amongst children. The students of grade 2 had a blast playing the Easter egg action hunt game. The children were asked to pick one egg from the tray, read the command attached to it and act it out. This activity inculcated patience and helped students explore the new arena of acting.
Overall it was a fun-filled day full of learning and enjoyment for all the students. The start of the new session was exciting for the little Goenkans.
