Trip to the Cathedral

Trip to the Cathedral

On Friday the 1st of July St. Pius X School went on a trip to the St Patrick’s Cathedral. We traveled there by bus. We went to the Cathedral because it was the year mercy and we went on a pilgrimage journey which is a journey of Faith and Mercy..

Once we arrived  we waited outside the Cathedral then we walked into the door of mercy which the bishop had blessed.. We walked inside and we touched the holy water and blessed ourselves, and genuflected then went to sit down..

After that Fr Larry started singing and coming up to the Altar which was the main place where all priests stays. Later on the mass kept on going until after communion. Later on Mrs Tui told us to sing a song while the Parish members were going up for Communion, we had to sing bread broken, wine shared.

Later on we all had to go to the altar so we can take a school photos. After that Fr Larry gave us a little tour around the church, the first thing he told us were the Stained Glass Windows. On the Stained Windows there was a picture of Jesus and Mary on the day of Assumption.

Meanwhile Mrs Tui told us that we can go for morning tea which will be held in the Parish Hall. After morning we had to come back to school so we can go back to school. We had the most exciting day. We wish we could go back sometimes.

My favourite thing we did there is going to the chapel to Pray,trying to make Noah’s art with 2 rocks on it and the last favorite is sleeping with our room partners and watching kid president.

Marae

  Marae

My whole school went on a trip to the Ruapotaka Marae. We walked there because it was not far. When we finally got there this lady from the Marae was calling us in Maori and then Ana-Lei replied back in Maori because she was representing our school. We stayed at the marae till we had to go to Technology. We had so much fun making new stuff and learning new Maori songs. I wish we could go there again sometime.

Science Roadtrip show !

Tuesday May 31 2016

Today Room 7 and Room 5 went to Tamaki college for a science roadshow. I went with Motu, his Mum, Pio, Anthony, Wela and Fano.

I saw some amazing different stations with different stuff but I didn't go to all of them. The first station I went to was the station where you have to put your hand inside and you have to feel what it is inside. It was cool because you could feel something inside. My favourite station was speedball because you have to throw the ball at the target as hard and fast as you can. My highest score was 92 kilometres.

I learnt that dolphins can hear from a far distance. I liked how we got to experiment different stations and thank them for teaching us stuff about science. I really want to go back again.
