Mission Day 2024

On Friday, 13 September when I came to school it was a special day. It was Mission Day! We were raising money for the Holy Angels orphanage in India. We were allowed to wear mufti. When we came to school we had Mass. After Mass we had Morning Tea and we had to set up our stands. After we finished setting it up Angelina, Elise, Ruzzel and I went  shopping and the other group had to work on our stall.

I bought a pink octopus, dinosaur and a daisy from the Crochet group in Room 8. After that I went to the top court to buy yummy lollies!! When the bell rang it was my group’s turn to work. We got a sugar rush by eating lots of lollies. After morning tea we watched a movie. After 15 minutes we had sausage sizzles and ice blocks. After the movie we had a HUGE!! tidy up and after that we had our Raffle Prizes.I was very happy at the end of the day!

 

Cycling Day

Cycling Day

Last Thursday morning we were all excited when we came to school because we were going to have Cycling lessons. I was also a bit nervous because I am not confident.

When we started we had to get into two teams and one was Broccoli and the other was Carrots. I was in the team Broccoli. We started at the bottom court when we started biking. Stephanie told us how to check if our bike was safe. She said they have an alphabet to remember.  It is  A – Air, B – brakes, C – chain, D – direction, D – drop test, Q – quick release lever x3.

After that the Broccoli team went to the top court and then I went with some other children to the canopy. We had to practise our balancing by scooting with two legs. It took a little while to balance. Then I started to glide which was scooting and then lifting my legs up. I had to use the brakes to stop gently.

After morning tea I felt more confident and I went back to the top court and I started to pedal. We went around the outside of the court. It was fun and I was proud of myself at the end of the day.
