WALT: use bean bags to give our brains and body an energy boost.

Assumption of Mary





On Friday we were very excited to go on our first bus ride to St Patrick's Cathedral to celebrate the Assumption of Mary.  All the children showed lots of respect in church and took part in the mass with reverence and self control.  They all especially enjoyed going up to get a blessing during communion.  A great day to celebrate a special occasion.


Walt: write a simple sentence in response to books we have read.
