Mass today started at 6:30am, which is 30 minutes than usual. Afterwards, we returned home for breakfast which we had at 7:00am. After enjoying the delicious breakfast we got ready to leave the house to go to St.Patrick&#8217;s with all the gifts, toys and clothes that we had packed the day before for every boy at the school. Each year group at St.Patrick&#8217;s received gifts. Year 1 was given stationary items such as a pens, pencils, sweets and colouring pencils. Year 3 received the same items as year 1 and was also given a pre-loved football tops, which have been kindly gifted from the community of St Benedict&#8217;s. Year 4 received stationary items and brand new Celtic shirts, which have also been donated by Chantelle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After St.Patrick&#8217;s received all of the gifts, the boys at the school were  excited to play sports and games with all their new equipment. After playing many sports such as basketball, football, tennis and volleyball we returned back home to get ready to go out for lunch. As we were walking into town many children were waving to us and following us while walking down to the restaurant. When we arrived to the restaurant  we all ordered drinks and food. The food took a long time to arrive at the table because the city had a power shutdown causing the food to be delayed. After eating all the food which was amazing we headed back to the house. Everyone was too excited to return back to the house to meet the boys from St. Patrick&#8217;s. Afterwards we then made our way to St. Magdalena&#8217;s to have a small party. We brought many snacks and drinks to give to all of the pupils which they loved. We ended the party by showing some of the songs and dances we know like the Macarena . All of the children loved it and even joined in to dance. We then returned back to St. Patrick&#8217;s for a short evening prayer before heading home to have supper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The boys then kindly invited us to show their cultural dances and songs which was very interesting. We have all learned new dances. One of the main dances was called Zangbeto which mainly is a creature dancing  with people around it dressed up with masks. We then ended the party by playing board games in the classroom such as checkers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By Marley Biernacki<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monire Mose, We started the day by waking up at 5:10am to get ready for Mass.
