St Patrick's Shouldn't Have Bins

I don't think St Patrick's should have bins because......

Firstly birds come and take the rubbish out of the bins.

Secondly, it's just a waste of our playtime putting rubbish in the bins.

Thirdly, the bins dont get emptied.

Some people might like having bins at school, but I don't like the idea!

Our Swimming Pool

Tennis courts are used for playing and practising tennis. Something big and blue landed on our school tennis court, in front of Rooms 7 and 8.

In the holidays St Patrick’s got an awesome swimming pool. The water felt warm like being in a spa. I smelt chlorine, the chemical that keeps on making my eyes blink. When I was swimming I had to open my eyes to see where I was going before I crashed into the stairs.

Everybody in St Patrick’s has a turn swimming. The scary part for me was holding my breath when I did a cannon ball because I had to touch the bottom of the pool.

I was proud of myself for swimming from one end of the pool to the other end, because I stopped once.

Duffy Role Model

Ever seen Mr Mac dancing? Watching him with Mrs Dines was like seeing a chicken versus a duck. They were dancing like two ballerinas. The classes were all laughing. Monday 4 April was a special day for St Patrick’s. there was a man called Mr Mac who came to visit our school. While Mrs Dines was standing in front of everyone Mr Mac stood up, went over and danced with her while the Duffy Song was playing. When the Duffy Song stopped Mr Mac showed us pictures of Doug the digger. They were cool! Some kids volunteered to read Mr Mac’s book about Doug. When they finished reading Mr Mac told us about how his arm got crushed. He couldn’t drive tractors, diggers, bulldozers and trucks for a long time. And that’s when he decided to write a book. I felt happy when Mr Mac visited St Patrick’s because he made me laugh.
