Basic synopsis INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION (context), prayers and getting the students prepared, in the classroom – Damian to organise WORD WORD – The Way of Jesus – Each Yr level will design and compose a section of the Holy Week Story. ACTION ACTION – back in the classroom – artistic response/reflection to the ‘journey’ – Damian to organise SENDING SENDING - conclusion – Prayer and singing – back in class – Damian to organise

6. ‘Section of the Holy Week Story…’ What does this mean? Design and create a symbol (representation) of the section of the Holy Week Story Zoe has begun getting the students in Visual Arts to design and create a symbol that may assist As a team to put together a section of the Holy Week story. When we are thinking of the design, we need to be very mindful of the community that we have in our school.

7. What could the ‘section’ look like? Think of possible colours, sounds and physical space that you would use. Eg Japanese Garden for the Garden of Gethesemane, Foyer for Palm Sunday (entrance) etc. What possible colours could you use, eg red blood, black death cloth, white resurrection etc. We are hoping for visuals aids. No words please. Songs and reflective music is great. It could be an action – washing the kids hands at the ‘Washing of the feet’ – kneel and say the Our Father in the Garden of Gethsemane etc etc etc
