On the 18th December 2017 we had our Christmas lunch. The food was delicious and everyone really enjoyed it. We had turkey with all the trimmings and ice cream for pudding. The P7′ made table decorations and name cards and helped to serve the lunch

I really enjoyed doing the concert, we all sang Christmas Calypso and This Christmas Time the P6/7’s also sang In a  Stable and Unto Us a Child is Born. Both of our parents loved it. Our parents loved the readers and they were very proud of us.

Well done everyone. I felt oh so proud to have been singing with all of my friends. I was quite nervous to be doing my reading but I got on with it and so did all of the other narrators. Everyone performed well. My favourite bit was the community singing. The songs were Santa Clause is Coming to Town, Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer, Jingle Bells and We Wish You a Merry Christmas. The wee ones did especially well because they made the mums and dads cry and that was our plan. So again well done everyone for doing their best. We got a huge round of applause.

I really enjoyed singing at the concert because it was fun and I got a little more confidence. I also enjoyed the community singing and we were better than the adults. The P1/2/3 sang Baby Sleeping and Three Wise Men, the P4/5 sang No Room At The Inn and There Were Shepherds and the P6/7 sang In A Stable and Unto Us A Child. We also had people speaking. Everyone was very good.

The schools singing was amazing and I am very proud of the naration I did.

Roman children liked to play with Hobby horses,carts,balls,kites,hoops,wooden swords,small figures,dolls,and poor children would have rag Dolls.birds,Dogs and later cats became common as pets.

Roman gladiators were people that fought animals like a bear , lion and even a crocodile .Gladiators were slaves although they did not look like slaves .They often had a vote on if the loser died and often they did die.
Sometimes they would flood the place so they could bring in the crocodiles.
The place is called an arena, that place was massive .
