Saint Patrick's Day

On Friday it was Saint Patrick's Day. In the morning we went to church to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day. First, at church, we knelt and prayed to God and Jesus. Then we sang nicely to God. After Mass we went back to school. Next we ate our morning tea. 

We had a short morning tea time. Then the bell rang and we all met outside the library. Next Miss Bullot put us into our teams. My team leader was called Thai and my second team leader was Lasike. 

The first activity we did was in my classroom. We made paper planes for Irish Airways with Miss Craig. We made the Irish Airway Planes by ourselves. This was my favourite activity because we got to decorate our planes with crayons and coloured markers. At the end we had to write our names or our initials on our planes. After that we went to Sister Evalesi's room to paint rainbows on paper. We also had to write our names on our pieces of paper at the end. 

Then we went outside and played 'Crab Crawl and Rabbit Hop Running, and Duck Walk with Mrs Twomy.  Our next 
activity was an arts and craft activity in Room 5L.  We made Irish Book Marks with Mrs Dines.  The first thing we had to do was to write our names at the back of the book mark.  When we finished writing our name we got to colour our leprachaun in different colours.  

The final game was outside with Miss Chao.  We played 'Steal the Emerald and the Gold'.  We got 20 points out of 20 for all of our art and craft activities and our games.  This meant that our team all helped each other, listened to the teacher and followed her instructions, and our team leader and co-team leader helped and encouraged us to participate in each activity.  Our co-team leader was Lasike, and he won a trophy for excellent leadership qualities.  

When we were all under the tree Miss Bullot gave us all an ice block.  Finally we had our lunch and played.  I had a fantastic day!
