Grandparents' Day

Grandparents’ Day

By Jiwoo Jang

On Friday 24 August 2018 it was Grandparents’ Day.

First of all we had early morning tea and went to Mass.
Father Bernard talked about how special grandparents
are. After Mass we had shared lunch. We had so many
treats, such as cookies, cupcakes, cakes and even sausage
sizzles!

After the wonderful shared lunch the grandparents sat
down on chairs and watched us do some performances.
There were three Sheridan performances and they were
the Kapa haka, Irish dancing and folk dancing. The
sheridan was so so so cute! Next the seniors did ukelele
and the song was Le Aute. The choir sang two songs and
they were Love Love Love and Language.

After we finished our exciting day, we went back to our
classroom. Some lucky people got to go home early
because their grandparents were there! Not Fair!

We had an amazing day and we hope the grandparents
enjoyed the day as much as we did.

Feast Day of St Mary MacKillop

On the feast day of st Mary MacKillop each classroom got together with another classroom. Room 9 was with Room 1 and 2. Our two classes did some awesome projects. Room 1 and 2 made some bookmarks and room 9 made collage flowers talking about Mary MacKillop. We created petals by folding a piece of paper in half 4 times then on the side that isn’t split and cut out a half petal shape and then you’ve got two petals! We needed to make five big ones and five small ones. We coloured the petals in and stuck the little petals on a piece of paper and then stuck the big petals in the gaps. Room 1 and 2 made bookmarks on coloured paper. They stuck pictures of Mary MacKillop  onto them. My partners were Esme and Josie, two students from Room 2. My best friend was partnered with Mary, another student from Room 2. After an awesome morning we went down the school to Room 4 to get a sausage to eat . It was amazing and we all had a great day. Thank you Mary for all your loving help!

The Flag Pole

The Flag Pole

By: Maggie

On the day of Room Nine’s assembly the
whole school went out to the front of the
church to see the raising of the flag on the
flag pole. The whole school had been waiting
for a long time for this. First of all we sang
the national anthem while Father blessed the
flag. After that we raised the flagpole. Finally!
The flag looked beautiful flowing in the wind.
Room Nine had their assembly straight
afterwards so we were wearing onesies and
mufti! Not very respectful! When we went
home we could see the flag flowing gracefully
in the wind. It was wonderful!
