Mrs Kerr's class - Flor de la Noche Buena

9th Dec 2020

Mrs Kerr’s and Mrs Adlard’s P.6 classes have been learning all about ‘The Legend of the Poinsettia’. This Mexican legend tells of a girl who could only offer weeds as a gift to Jesus on Christmas Eve. When she brought the weeds into a church, they blossomed into the beautiful red plants we know as poinsettias, known as Flores de Noche Buena in Mexico (Spanish for "flowers of the holy night").
