One of the most special and sacred events of the annual liturgical calendar for Catholics occurs during Lent when we prepare for the death and resurrection of our saviour Jesus Christ. Many of the following special celebrations are associated with the season which help guide us on our Lenten journey: Ash Wednesday, Palm Sunday, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday.
Observed by
Catholics in the midst of the Easter weekend is a very solemn religious
celebration called “The Stations of the Cross”.
During such a celebration, we journey with Jesus from the moment he was
condemned to die until he rose from the dead on Easter Sunday. Various visual depictions symbolic of the
stations often accompany readings and prayers which focus the attention of the
congregation to the sacrifice made by Jesus for mankind on Good Friday and His
triumph over death on Easter.
During Holy Week, the final week of Lent prior to Easter, the students of 4V examined each of these stations as we journeyed alongside Jesus during this very sacred time. Individually, or in pairs, the students had the option of creating a poster visual or Google Slide complete
with a variety of imagery and illustrations which depict what their specific station represented.
The following are examples of some of the student work that was created.
