christinaward — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 01:42:31 +0000

At 2 pm today our private school, The Epiphany celebrated a christian tradition called The Feast of Epiphany. We had candles, prayer and the 3 wise men followed by a fantastic feast of roast beef, fruit, cheese/crackers and cake.

A cool tradition is for each advisory group(1 teacher and about 12 students) to share a cake and with in that cake there is a gold coin. Who ever finds the coin gets to keep it.
