Easter Cakes and Traditions in
Welsh Schools |
In the Early Years the children
enjoy an Easter hunt. This involves the children looking for
chicks or chocolate Easter Eggs around the school grounds.
We also make Easter hats or bonnets, nowadays often bunny ears
or flower crowns but it used to be a tradition to wear a new
Easter bonnet to church or chapel a few years ago! |

decorated with eggs in the Early Years.
