Passover in Primary 5

We had a Seder meal today – we had kind of the same food the Jewish people would eat. It was very tasty. We tasted parsley and bitter herbs (horse radish) , matzo bread, salt water and charoset (mixed chopped apples and cinnamon).  We drank juice instead of wine. The Seder meal is eaten at Passover to celebrate Jewish freedom from slavery.

Before the meal 2 volunteers searched for any ordinary bread hidden in our room, sweeping with a feather.

Matzah bread is flat because it has no yeast in it.

  1. I loved coming in to see this happening P5. What a fantastic way to bring a fascinating part of Jewish culture to life. Thanks for organising this Mrs Hull, I’m sure the children will remember Passover well now.

  2. Well done for remembering Yasemin! I’m glad you enjoyed it. We had good fun today. It was a very different way to start a Wednesday.
