Bonfire Night

We had our bonfire on the 5th of November which was actually on Bonfire night. We have this up at Mursetter.

We went around Cullivoe on the 22nd of October to collect the wood for the bonfire. We had a full truck of wood and pallets which was great and made this the biggest bonfire we have ever had.  We had a Guy Fawkes to put on top of our bonfire however the secondary pupils make it and they came with it too late so we had to throw it on the side instead. Guy Fawkes was a man who tried to blow up Parliament.

After the bonfire was lit there was a firework display which was great. We loved seeing all the different rockets, some were really loud. We also got sparklers to hold too.

After the bonfire we went to the Cullivoe hall to have a supper. We had hot dogs, burgers, beans and chips. It was delicious!! We had a selection of sauces to go on top. After we had our lovely supper we played games.

Ying is back!

On Wednesday the 2nd of November Ying came back to teach us Mandarin. She kindly took back Chinese (green) tea, we all tried it but not everybody liked it. We were split up so primary 6/7 went first then 4/5 followed. We learned how to say hello, thank you, your welcome, bye bye, mum and dad. We also learned different tones. We are happy to have Ying back, we LOVE Chinese!!!
