The Wedding at Cana

On Tuesday we acted out the Wedding at Cana. The bride was Pia and the groom was Adam. Jesus and Mary were played by Cameron and Aoibheann. The servants were Jacob,Jasmine and Sparsh. Everyone else that wanted to be in it were wedding guests. We got into costumes and got the props ready and then Mrs Schroder took photos of us. We made a comic with the photos and added Speech bubbles to retell the story.

Ben Browne the author visits St Marys

The whole school went to the hall and Ben Browne came to talk to us. He told us about writing books and stories. We found out that he likes to read books and to write them. His wife is an illustrator and she draws the pictures for his books. He didn't like reading until he was 9 and he read a book called Tom Sawyer.
He read us some books and Pia held the book and turned the pages to show us the pictures.

Cross Country Training

Today we were training for the cross country. We ran around the field and Liam was the leader. We are training for the cross country so we can get fitter and it will be easier. When we were running my shoe fell off.

Children's Day

On Friday we dressed up in our house colours and then we paraded around the court. After that we played games. Some of the games were Sponge races, Musical Islands, an obstacle course, baton relay and a balloon race.

After lunch we went to the pool for a free swim. It was fun and some people went on the inflatable slide.

Summer Reading

We read all summer and filled in our summer reading form. Mary from the library came in today and gave us our prizes.
