Good morning boys and girls 🙋♀️
How are you all feeling today?
How good do you feel when you laugh?
Laughter sparkles like sunshine.😂 ☀️
Usually you all like to tell me jokes in class so today I thought I would start off with a little joke or two, to make you laugh (hopefully). I am missing all your jokes very much!
Here goes…
Why was 6 afraid of 7?
Because 7, 8, 9
Why can’t Elsa have a balloon?
Because she will let it go.
Even if they didn’t make you laugh, I hope they made you smile😀
Let’s get started on today activities.
We will begin our day as always, 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 in school. St. Barbara, pray for us.

R.E.🙏🏻
This week we have been looking at Jesus’ commandment to:
‘Love one another as I have loved you.’
Jesus showed his love for all of us on Good Friday when he died on the cross. Tomorrow we are going to celebrate the Feast of the Ascension. On this day, forty days after his resurrection on Easter Sunday, Jesus ascended into Heaven leaving the disciples behind to carry on with his work and to be witnesses for him. They were a little scared to be left without Jesus but they believed in him and they knew that he would not leave them alone. They were quite right of course; the Holy Spirit came to help them on the Feast of Pentecost and we’ll explore that later.
Below you will see two very different video clips about the Ascension. Please watch both of them.
Now what I would like you to do is to draw or make your own reminder of what happened on the Feast of the Ascension.
You could think about making the figures of Jesus, his disciples and the two people dressed in white – you could even create your own video clip.
Or you could draw them and write a sentence or a paragraph below; you might want to make a picture using other media – e.g. cotton wool for the clouds.
I have attached some ideas to help you below.
Whatever activity you choose to do, please email it to gw13mceleneylauren@glow.sch.uk or, with an adult’s permission, upload it on to Twitter @St_BarbarasPS.
