St Patrick’s 175 year Jubilee

 

On Friday in the morning  I woke up. I was so excited for the day. The first thing we did was find a seat in Mass. After that we sang for a long time and then when we left  we went for morning tea. 

After morning tea was done we went for tabloid sports,  but first we got split into teams. All our group’s names were based on Irish names or Irish food names. When  we got placed in our groups we went to play games. All groups split up to go to our first game.

My group and I  were with Mrs George and her game was to throw the gumboot the furthest away and win. Our group won the gumboot throw. Then Mrs Bullot rang the bell switch games.

We did it again and again. When we were done  playing our games Mrs Foden told the group leaders to go get the ice blocks. We all ate them. Then the day was over celebrating St Patrick was over.

This is me on Sunday during Mass when I had to carry the candle in my Tongan clothes. I felt very special. This was a great weekend to celebrate our Jubilee.

 

Learning to use shapes to make a person

Today Mrs Grant came to room 6 to teach us how to make a person out of shape on our chrome books. But before we got started we learned a few chrome book shortcuts. After that we learned about making shapes and making perfect shapes then we colored the shape. She also told us that we can move shapes with keys. After we were working Mrs Grant said she had to go to a meeting and when she left we started our blogs. It was so fun learning about shapes. I hope we can do it again.

Learning shortcuts

Today Mrs Grant came to teach us shortcuts. We learned how to use a touch pad and my favorite learning task was to use the poly line to connect the dots to make a star. My other favorite learning task was to solve a puzzle. It was so fun because it was a cake puzzle. I hope I can solve another puzzle next week. It was a good day today. I hope I can do it again.
