We all had a great holiday but were looking forward to getting back to school.
This week has been a busy week in RE. On Thursday we celebrated the Feast of the Ascension. It was a lovely mass and P4 sang beautifully as always. The children who are making their Holy Communion on Sunday went to the Lanthorn for a rehearsal with Fr Paul. Fr Paul was very impressed with us. We got to taste the bread however we know that it is not the Body of Christ until it has been consecrated at the mass. We are all very excited to receive the Sacrament of Holy Communion. We did some beautiful art work to display in the Lanthorn for our special day. Make sure you have a look to see all the children who are making their Holy Communion.
We are all loving our IDL topic this term ‘The Olympics’. We are finding it very interesting and having lots of fun trying out the different athletic sports. This week in PE we have been doing sprints. We have learned how to do a sprint start and a crouch start. Soon we will be running faster than Usain Bolt! Look out for us in years to come at the Olympics.
We have also been designing new costumes for the athletes, designing a stadium for Rio 2016 and creating posters to encourage people to live a healthy life. We are very good with identifying healthy and unhealthy foods and giving hints and tips to keep fit.
In drama this week we worked in our country groups to create a short role play. The role play was a news interview about an athlete winning gold. We even had Andrew Murray in our class!!! What a guy!
We wish you all a very happy weekend and the P4 Children who are making their Holy Communion on Sunday are in all of our prayers.
Mrs W and P4
