Communion preparation for the 2nd classes

Lots of children in second class are preparing for their Communion this month. After a practice in the church this week, room 1 were lucky enough to be given a tour of the church by Eoin. We learned lots! Thanks Eoin!

Celebrating St. Brigid’s day with Room 5

We were learning all about St. Brigid. We learned how to make St. Brigid’s crosses. Although we didn’t have the rushes to make an authentic cross……………we tried something different!

Advent cards in Room 3

We were busy making cards as part of our advent activities in Room 3 this week!

Advent in Room 3

We’ve been very busy getting ready for advent.  We are particularly enjoying completing our St. Louis Advent Calendar. Today, our advent calendar activity is to compliment someone! Later on, we will try and guess who completed their activity in school!

Celebrating Lent in St. Louis

As we prepare for Easter this Lent we are trying to Make a Difference in St. Louis. We are Celebrating Kindness by recording some of the kind things people do for us and giving ourselves a pat on the back by recording some of the kind things we do for others too. We are also making more of an effort to notice the things in our lives that make us happy; the things we a re grateful for. We’re recording these on our Sacred Space too.

 

Some people are trying to give up sweets, technology, meat, palm oil or some bad habits this Lent. Others are taking up new routines by spending more time playing outside, with their family, doing the things they love to do and practicing their skills and talents.

 

“If the only prayer you ever said was Thank You; that would be enough” Meister Eckhart

Celebrating Grandparents Day

Here in St. Louis we love to celebrate our wonderful grandparents.

They were invited into school to talk to our classes and then they listened to the magnificent choir sing.

It was a great day.
