We have reached our Easter holiday, and what a special week it has been. As a school community we have gathered together each morning, to share with one another a part of Jesus’ Easter journey. We were all SO proud of each and every member of our class on Monday as they shared with us all the Last Supper. A huge well done children, you did so with such reverence and care, you overcame those nerves and worked together beautifully. To our chanters, thank you. To our dancers, thank you. To our disciples, thank you. And to Ciaran who took who showed us Jesus, thank you. You all did so with the greatest of faith and love.
We have continued our learning of the Green Children this week and have focused on the features of a diary. This is something you could practice our the half term… if you have your own diary, remember how to correctly start each diary entry going forward, only speak in the first person and remember to keep your tenses in the past. We have also finished our electricity topic in science, creating informative posters to keep others safe around electricity. We are hoping to put a few of these up around school.
Well done to all of the children who took part in the Egg decorating competition, to raise money for CAFOD. The entries were so creative! The generous fundraising this half term has been wonderful. Thank you so much for all of your support.
