Up Up and Away - Dr seuss

This is my hot air balloon that we created to show that our goals are going to take up to new heights.

Sun Smart

During writing room 6 has been making pamphlets about being sun smart. This is mine. 

 sun smart is about learning a set of skills to help protect your self from harmful UV rays that damage our skin and eyes.

slip on a shirt ( one that has sleeves )   slop on some sun screen (SPF 30 + is best) slap on a hat ( with wide brims ) wrap on some sun glasses ( ones that are big enough to cover all of your eyes ) slide into some shade.

Growth Mindset-Goal Bunting

Each student in room 6 has made a bunting triangle to show our growth mindset goal and motto that we want to work on through out the year. Come check them out !

Jesus Strand-Religious Education

Saint Joseph's Day Tabloids Sports

Tuesday 19th March was St Joseph’s Day Feast Day. The whole school attended mass to celebrate the leadership Saint Joseph showed. Saint Joseph is also special to our school because Saint MacKillop and the Sisters of St Joseph were inspired by Saint Joseph. Saint Joseph is also the foster father of Jesus. The following day, the whole school came together to celebrate with fun tabloid sports in our houses. We all got to play so many fun and exciting games. Thank you to our leaders who prepared this.

Ash wednesday

Ash Wednesday

Today was Ash Wednesday. We went to church and sang some hymns, got the ashes on our foreheads, sung happy birthday to a little girl starting school on her birthday! We then went up and got a blessing.
We did make an attempt to keep our ashes on our foreheads, but that was a fail due to swimming and itching it off. We had a good day and hope everyone else did to. 

Shrove Tuesday

Tuesday was Shrove Tuesday. We all had a great day in room 6. The festivities started with the burning of the ashes on the turf. This was a new and exciting experience that not many of us had seen before.
Later on during Religious Education we learnt more about Shrove Tuesday and Lent. People used to get rid of all their luxury items such as flour, sugar, butter, eggs and milk by making pancakes. We were even able to enjoy some pancakes of our own. We all thought it was a great start to lent and we are looking forward to the lenten season as we prepare for the death and resurrection of Jesus. We are the season of Lent and it is a time of preparation.
