Easter Saturday was anticipated more excitedly than normal
in Kokkola’s Isokylä.
The school’s general and special needs eldest pupils
had a festive school day on Easter Saturday. Before they
were allowed access to the delicious food on offer, they
had to complete and stack the fire sculpture. With a force
of nearly 70 pupils in squelchy boots, the modules of the
fire sculpture were carried over to Nynäs Park to await
the culmination of the evening, the ignition.
The “Kokoo koko kokko” cultural heritage and
fine arts project that had lasted all late winter was nearly
ready. The celebration was a way of building and supporting
the community.
