Nasinu schools unite to observe spiritual significance of Easter

A senior teacher in Nasinu has called on students and the wider public to reflect on the deeper meaning of Easter, describing it as a celebration of salvation and a reminder of Christian identity.

Christian Mission Fellowship (CMF) Primary School assistant head teacher, Litia Daulakeba said the Easter message shared within the school community centres on the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and its significance for believers today.

She stressed that Easter was not just a tradition but a powerful reminder of freedom from sin and a renewed purpose in life.

“The message from the school, to the children and the public, is a celebration,” Ms Daulakeba said.

“A celebration of what Jesus has done, dying on the cross 2,000 years ago, for us to be saved and free from all bondage, frustrations, and sin.”

She said that CMF Primary School, along with CMF College, St Mark College, St Mark Primary School and Hilton Special School marked Easter as a time to honour the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Ms Daulakeba described this as the foundation of Christian faith.

“It is to celebrate the resurrection, that we are saved, as Christ’s sacrifice has already paved the way for believers to live with hope and assurance,” she said.

Ms Daulakeba added that the message of Easter encourages individuals to move forward with confidence and joy, knowing they are saved.

She urged students and the community to embrace life positively while remaining grounded in their faith.

“Jesus has done everything for us, so we move forward, enjoy life here on earth, and live as believers, as Christians,” Ms Daulakeba said.

She also stressed that faith should be expressed not only in words but through actions. She encouraged students to live responsibly and make choices that reflect their beliefs, reminding them of their identity as children of God.

“As we move forward, do the right thing and remember that you are a child of God through Jesus Christ,” she said.

Ms Daulakeba highlighted the crucial role schools play in reinforcing spiritual values, especially during significant periods like Easter, helping shape students into individuals guided by faith, discipline, and a sense of purpose.
