Hundreds of children and adults attended this very special service, along with eight donkeys a goat and a dog! It is organised each year by the special needs charity Hop, Skip and Jump.
Our pupils happily entered into the spirit of the service with several choosing to take up the offer to dress up in biblical robes:
Later in the service, all our children joined in with the procession around the cathedral, waving palm fronds with both James and Finlay happily taking to the stage!
The service was led by the Rev Celia Carter and told the story of the Gospel, helped by the children and the animals.
The whole occasion was both moving and joyous and a wonderful start to Easter.
