Palm Sunday - Donkey Parade

Palm Sunday - Donkey Parade

On Friday last week Room 16 ran the Palm Sunday Liturgy along with children from Room 5. All of the children read their parts well. After the Liturgy we had our Donkey Parade outside and Abigayle from Room 16 was lucky enough to be selected to ride the donkey. We all sang 'Hosanna Bless our King' and thought of the moment Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey and the people sang and waved palm branches to honour their 'King'.

 

Harold the Giraffe - Life Education

Room 16 children all love Harold the Giraffe when he comes to help Bernie teach us interesting science stuff once a year. The children all get to meet Harold personally at the end and those that choose can give him a hug (or get a friendly bite from him). Thanks for helping to teach us Harold.
Below should be photos of all 29 children who were present on Tuesday last week.

Life Education 2015

Life Education 

The children always look forward to Bernie and Harold The Giraffe visiting with the Life Education Truck. This year's learning is about the human body, particularly the heart. The children especially love it when Harold comes out to talk.

Some kids can't help their excitement.

St Mary's Gala 2015

St Mary's Gala 2015

Our annual gala was another success for the school last Thursday night. Mr Bach was running the bungy with Mrs Schofield and they were flat tack busy all night keeping children happy having fun. Below is a range of photos from the fun. As you can see there was a mixture of success and failure at managing to grab the can of drink. The best technique is always to run hard and reach down.
