Easter traditions vary around the world and have both religious and pagan origins. The date of Easter is based on the lunar calendar and differs each year between Western and Eastern Christian churches. Pagan spring traditions like decorating eggs and gifting them were adopted by Christianity to represent new life and Jesus' resurrection. Today, people celebrate with foods like lamb, hot cross buns, simnel cakes and chocolate, as well as activities like egg hunts, bonfires and traditions unique to certain countries.Easter powerpoint

Jesus celebrated Passover with his disciples, telling them the bread and wine represented his body and blood. He prayed in the garden of Gethsemane before being betrayed by Judas and arrested. Pilate sentenced Jesus to crucifixion despite finding no fault in him. Jesus was mocked and crucified between two thieves. On the third day, Mary Magdalene and another Mary discovered Jesus' tomb was empty, and an angel told them he had risen from the dead.Easter project

"Anna Scott spotted leaving William's flat early this morning"
By Emma Dupont
Hollywood superstar Anna Scott was seen leaving Notting Hill bookshop owner William Thacker's flat at 6am this morning. Neighbors reported hearing loud voices coming from the flat late into the night. When confronted by paparazzi outside the building, Scott refused to comment on why she had spent the night at Thacker's home. Thacker also declined to give details about their relationship. Could this chance meeting turn into a real romance between the ordinary Londoner and the biggest movie star in the world? Only time will tell...

A tsunami is a huge wave caused by underwater earthquakes that can grow to 30 meters tall and destroy entire cities. Tsunamis are very dangerous and destructive natural disasters that are difficult to protect against due to their massive size and power. Some protective measures like gates that close after earthquakes in Japan provide some defense, but larger tsunamis can still overwhelm these defenses.Diwali
