Prayer Time


We have been very fortunate to have Cushla from Catholic Education Office in our classroom today teaching us about how to pray.  We had our eyes closed, focused on our breathing and listening to a song Be Still and Know God is here.  We felt really wonderful, calm, peaceful, relaxed, joyful, gentle, kind, loving, caring and faithful while listening to it.  Cushla also gave us 2 sets of Rosary beads from a very poor village in Mexico who wanted to help after the earthquakes.  The Rosary beads are hand made with cottons. They wrote us a message and as it is in Spanish, Isidora is taking the message home to get her mum and dad to translate the Spanish for us.
Thank you Cushla!!!

Today is our second Drama lesson in a series of lessons.  We are very fortunate to have 2 very capable student teachers coming in teaching drama as part of their University work.  These 2 teachers are both in their final year of training to be Primary School Teachers.  WE are having lots of fun :)  Photos to follow!!!!

Having fun with Plays

We are focusing on co-operation when working in a group. It is nice to say words for our friends when they are reading however, we need to allow others time to think. In these photos, we are working in mixed groups and will present our plays informally to the rest of the class.
