Go To A Cool School!

St. Patrick's School is an institution educated for kids that from 5 to 14.

St. Patrick’s School students goes to school for a good education and to learn new skills and gain knowledge about the world around us.

Teachers help the students learn by teaching them all about different subjects such as  Religious education, maths and reading. The principal is the person who runs and leads the school. The staff are the people who help the students with the lunch orders, learning, attendance and preparing trips and special occasions.

There are lots of different events that happen in St. Patrick's School.

What are the facilities in schools?
St. Patrick’s School has a sick bay. The sick bay is where pupils go to when they are hurt or not feeling well. There is also an office. This is where teachers get together for a meeting or a cup of tea. A lunch room is where the kids can order lunch. There is also a library where the kids can borrow books to read and to learn more.

WALT celebrate diversity at St. Patrick's School.

I know this when I write 3 sentences about each culture group that performed at St. Patrick's School cultural festival.

Descriptions of  2014 St. Patrick’s School’s cultural festival groups:

Maori- Some of the year 7 and 8’s wore Piupius. Piupius are traditional skirts that Maori people wear. The girls had pois.

Rarotonga- The Tongan kids wore kofus. They placed oil on their bodies to make them shiny so when people give them money, they will stick to them.

Samoa- The Samoan group wore lava lavas because they are the traditional clothing in Samoa.

European Fusion- The girls put lipsticks and make up on themselves. They wore red shirts and  skirts to look like real Europeans.

American Pop- We wore all black from head to toe so the glow in the dark sticks will glow. Our music was ‘Happy’ and ‘Celebrate’ because those are the songs that are popular in America.

The Unbelievable Tipy Tap!

WALT wash our hands but using less water.

Tipy tap is good for us because we wont waste water. We use 10 liters of water. People in Africa have to walk for miles to get water, so they can eat, drink, and to water plants. That means that they don't have water left over to wash their hands. We had to create a devise to help them wash their hands because so they don't spread germs.
A Tipy tap is a cheap creation and a creation that wont waste water. All you need is, 4 long pieces of wood with a pointy end, 2 nails, 1 carton and gravel. You also need 2 strings but strong, 1 long strong branch, and soap. Even tools to dig for the gravel to place in.

This is the picture of the Tipy tap we made at St. Patrick's school. Also how we made the Tipy tap.
