Gum Should Not Be Allowed At School

I really think gum should not be allowed at school because….

First of all it has too much sugar.

Secondly it sometimes makes a noise when it is chewed.

And lastly when it’s put in the rubbish bin it sticks to the rubbish.

So remember there should be no gum at school.

Learning From A Lifeguard

How do you feel when someone comes and shows you more about being safe in water?

Well Room 5 is lucky because a lifeguard came to show us how to dive under waves. It was very tricky when Sean the lifeguard said " Swim on top of the waves." Someone else was there, it was Chris. He watched us a for a bit. Sean was telling us to practice going under the waves when some of my classmates were making waves with the little floating boards. We were all having turns. That was the second last session we had with Sean. I felt really proud because we were learning more about being SAFE in the water.

Mr Mac's Visit

Have you ever felt so happy when someone new came to your school? Guess what? A visitor came to St Patrick’s and made us laugh. His name was Mr Mac. Mr Mac came on 4th April to our Duffy Role Model Assembly. He came to tell us the importance of staying at school. Mr Mac “wagged” school when he was young. There was a sad part in his life. His arm got crushed by a truck! When Mr Mac told us the process of writing a book I felt inspired because writing a book is awesome! I wish that Mr Mac could have told us some more of his life story and showed more pictures from his Doug the Digger stories. I’m so grateful that I met and saw Mr Mac.
