Church Easter Egg Hunt

Easter Eggs represent new life and rebirth. In Medieval times eating eggs was forbidden during Lent so on Easter Sunday, tucking into an egg was a real treat. This has developed to our custom of eating Chocolate Easter Eggs on Easter Sunday.

Ever mindful that some parents choose not to give their children a lot of chocolate these days our Easter Egg Hunt will consist of children making their own Easter Egg from card and colouring pens and then having it hidden to be discovered.

There will be refreshments following this activity and some chocolate will be available to those who can have it.

All children and families are welcome other you attend Church regularly or not.

This event will take place at 3pm.
