Party



First class had a party last Monday to celebrate their participation in the First Holy Communion. We ate our goodies in the park and had a game of football afterwards.

First Holy Communion





Some of the children from first class were part of the choir who sang at the first Holy Communion last Saturday. All the boys and girls from second class looked lovely. Next year it'll be our turn!

Outdoor Games





We all enjoyed the lovely, hot sunshine last week. Teacher brought us outside to play tennis, football and parachute games.

Ollie the Guide Dog



Ollie the guide dog came to visit us last week. Some children were blindfolded. They found it difficult to move around because they couldn't see. We were allowed to stroke Ollie.

Stained Glass Window


We made a stained glass window for our classroom.

African Displays in our Classroom





Learning about Africa is very interesting. Did you know that tiger cubs are born blind? They open their eyes after 10 to 14 days. We read a book about African animals called We all went on safari - A Counting Journey through Tanzania by Laurie Krebs. We made our own counting book called We all went to the beach. We also made sunset pictures and designs to show Swahili names.
