As part of our RE we’ve been learning about how Celtic communities worshipped God.

We’ve looked at Arthurlie Cross, a local monument from between 10th-11th Century.

We’ve heard prayers and blessings from the Carmina Gadelica in both Gaelic and English.

We’ve also looked at the beautiful illustrations and recreated some of our own.

It’s been a special week in P5. We have had Fr. Joe visit to hear Confessions. Then we were fortunate to celebrate Mass with Fr. Joe Balmer and we are looking forward to visit St. John’s Church on Friday.

As part of Religious Education this month, we are exploring the Celtic Traditions of Christian Blessings and Songs which celebrate Creation.

We have been learning about Celtic Crosses and discussed the local Arthurlie Stone which has been in Barrhead since 1000 – 1100ad.

We created our own Celtic Crosses.
