10/7/23-Mission Day

Today we joined with Reception Class to celebrate Mission Day. We did a scavenger hunt to search for letters that we turn had to unscramble. They spelled out ‘Persevere with God’. We also played some games with our buddies and had lots of fun. We also decorated some crosses which were later blessed by Father Neil.

20/3/23-RE lesson: The Transforming Spirit

We have read the story of Pentecost in class. We looked at different pieces of famous art based on Pentecost and discussed the symbolism used. We wrote our thoughts down and added them to our RE display in class.

Today we went to Roundhay park and walked 3km around the lake to contribute towards the money that has been raised by the whole school for CAFOD.

22/2/23- Ash Wednesday Mass

Year 5 led the whole school, as well as members of the parish, in Ash Wednesday mass. We did readings and bidding prayers and performed a liturgical dance to the song ‘Father I have sinned’. We also supported our buddies from Year 1 during mass.

3/2/23 - Virtues day

Year 5 were given respect as their Virtue for the day. We discussed different ways that we can show respect and how it makes us feel to be respected. We did lots of role play in groups to show each other how to be respectful and we made some beautiful artwork.
