Good Friday Procession Cancelled due to Complaint by Secularist Group
The Andalusian Education Inspection cancelled the Good Friday procession for school children in Dos Hermanas due to time pressure for parents and complaint by a secularist group, Sevilla Laica. The parents of the affected children gathered signatures to reverse the decision as the procession is a voluntary activity and their children “were very excited” (“estaban muy ilusionados”).
In Osuna, a town in Seville region, a similar procession was also cancelled. However, due to complaints from the parents the procession was moved to the afternoon so that it would be outside of school hours.
