Eid Assembly

Eid Assembly - March 2025

 On the Thursday before Easter, we were treated to a spectacular Eid Assembly organised and directed by Miss Hubbard.  The assembly started with Year 1 explaining what Eid is and why Muslims celebrate the occasion. Year 2 then showed us some of the special food that is associated with Eid such as Sheer Kuma, Jollof rice and baclava - everyone was left wide eyed and feeling more hungry than you would expect at 9.30 in the morning! Some Year 3 children then shared their recent Eid experiences from earlier in the week and it was lovely to hear about how their faith and their family mean to them - not to mention the presents! But Eid is also about the spirit of giving, as Year 4 explained to us, and making sure those who might have less are looked after. Year 5 children then gave us a flavour of how Eid looks slightly different across the world. Then came the opportunity for the children to showcase their Eid outfits, some were traditional and others had a slightly more modern twist, but every single child looked fantastic! Year 6 finished the assembly with a quiz to ensure that everyone was listening... which they were! It was a superb assembly and a big thankyou to Miss Hubbard for directing the show, ably supported by Miss Malek, Miss Hughes and Miss Khan.
