Good morning Primary 7 
,
I hope you have all had a good week and have worked hard. We have a long weekend this weekend which means that you have a few days off from school work. Use that time to relax and get out in the fresh air.
Let’s join our hands and begin our day with our morning prayer. 
God our Father, as we prepare to begin our work, we ask you to help us use properly, the many gifts you have given us, so that we may fully benefit from our day together.
St. Barbara, pray for us.
I have had some great work sent over to me this week and I have really enjoyed reading it. Usually I get to display all of your wonderful work on the walls for everyone to see. As I am not able to put your work on the walls I am going to be posting it on our daily blogs. I would love if you could email or tweet me any work that you are proud of and that you would like to show off. 
These are post cards that I received from Archie and Ava telling me what they have been up to. It was great to hear from you both as I am missing you all.
Ben wrote a great imaginative story, it was well structured and punctuated. Well done Ben, it’s great to see you are still meeting the creative writing genre targets.
Daniel has been revising his spelling rules and he has presented his work well. He has also used the BODMAS order of operations to complete his sums. Good work Daniel!
Michael has also been working really hard! He has used some amazing adjectives to make a piece of text much more interesting to read. Michael also sent me the tongue twister that he wrote, see if you can give it a go.
Well done Primary 7 for sending me all of this fabulous work, I look forward to receiving lots more.

Ascension Thursday: 21st May 2020
Today is Ascension Thursday!
We have been thinking about loving and caring for others all week and we have tried to follow Jesus’ commandment to, ‘Love one another as I have loved you.’
You have created a Caring Wreath to show that you care and you have learned about how Jesus ascended into heaven forty days after his resurrection on Easter Sunday.
Normally on Ascension Thursday we would all be going to Mass. Although we can’t actually go to church today, Bishop Toal is celebrating Mass for all of the children of the Diocese of Motherwell at 11am.
This Mass is being streamed on Facebook so you will need an adult’s permission to watch this:
