ST Patrick’s Day
On Friday morning the 15th of March was St Patrick’s Day. I was feeling so excited, I got all ready.
I hopped into the car and we drove. When we arrived at school we were early so we waited in the car for a few minutes. I saw my friend Annamaria get out of her car, then a bit more people were waiting for the gate to open. When Miss Bullot opened the gate Annammaria and I ran to class. We were waiting for our friends to come, we were all running and all of a sudden the bell rang so we went to class. We lined up to go up to mass, we had to sing and pray. When we finished mass Miss Bullot said that we had to postpone the games on Monday because it was raining and they didn’t want us to get sick. Some people were sad.
When we went back to class we did some RE, Mr Bell told us that we were going to do a St Patrick Task Board for this block. We got into our chrome books, we could do it in any order, they were heaps of fun but some of them were hard to do. The morning tea bell rang so we went outside to have fun and play. (It was wet outside) After morning tea we continued doing the task board, we did Karakia for lunch. After lunch Mr Bell said we were going to watch Spirited Away, we were so happy, we were getting comfy we had bean bags all over the floor. During the movie I fell asleep, for a long time. When the bell rang we were so sad, we cleaned up, said Karakia and went home.
On Monday morning when I arrived at school I ran so fast to put the bag away. Some people brang their PE gear and so did I, Room 6 were going to do Assembly, when the bell rang we lined up and went under the canopy. We sang the National Anthem, gave the students their certificates and sang Happy Birthday. We did RE and when the bell rang we changed into our PE gear and played. The bell rang and we went under the canopy, Miss Bullot was telling us what team we were in. We went to play our first games. We were playing Mr Bell, we played Scatterball, all we had to do was throw 3 tennis balls and run to the other side, the fielding team had to get the tennis ball and someone had to be in the circle and lift their hands and say stop.
It was really fun playing Scatterball but some of the juniors didn’t really know how to play but we were still cheering. The second game was with Miss Kyle (Netball) we had to do 4 passes then pass it to the juniors to score it. We weren’t playing the game properly, we were doing 3 passes! When the bell rang we went to Mr Carroll (Spoon race), then Sr Evalesi (Sashes) and the last game was with Mrs Agnew (Cricket Bowling), when we finished we went under the canopy and sat down, Miss Bullot told us how many points we got and who won. We got an ice block, then we said prayers and had lunch. After the bell rang we went to class and finished Spirited Away. I loved St Patrick’s Day and playing games. I am so happy that we could finish Spirited Away.
