Confession

2012-02-10T02:16:00.000-08:00

Today I went to the church and made my confession. I was nervous at the start but when I went up I was not scared. I just told my sins to Fr. Deco on the altar and came back down. All of us went up. After, we said two Hail Marys. At the very end we said another two prayers. We looked in the confession box.There are two sides on it. You go in on one side and someone can go in on the other side!

My Day with St. Brigid By Travis

2012-02-02T05:57:00.000-08:00

I remember that day well. It was Wednesday 1st Febuary 470. I woke up to gentle footsteps coming in my door. She had beautiful brown hair. She had rushes in her hand.

I asked her what she was doing. She replied, saying, "I am making a cross." I said "Who are you?" She said "I am ST.Brigid the nun." I said "I don't like nuns". Next she said" I'm not here to fight. I'm here to make peace . I'm making the cross to show you about Jesus." I said "You know that I am dying". St.Brigid said "I can get a cure for you." Then I said "If I live I will marry you even though you're a nun."

She went to her friend and got the cure. She gave it to me and I drank it. So I got up out of bed and kissed her. I said "Will you marry me?" She said "YES!" Then we both lived happily ever after.

Haunted Castle by Evan

There is a old castle near our street that is supposed to be haunted. One night my three friends and I decided to investigate. We went to the castle and we saw two skeleton guards at the door. We couldn't get past them. So we decided to go through the back door. But the back door was locked so we decided to break the door down. There were more doors inside and they were all open. They led us all the way to the witch. She had a bottle. She made all of us have a drink. We all died.

Trip to Liverpool By Mason

2011-09-29T05:27:00.000-07:00

This picture was taken in 2001. When I was 2 I lived in Liverpool with my Mam and Dad in a house. My dad would bring me to the park. Sometimes we would go swimming. My dad worked in a school as a caretaker. He would bring out the hurls and the balls. He also did odd jobs around the school. He told me that he used to play football with some of the kids in the school. He loved working there. Then one day when my dad came home from work my mum asked him could we come home to see my nanny and Grandad. He said ok. We came home in the Summer and we did not go back. After that we got a house and we moved in. It was the best house we ever had.

We had a great time. We got a bucket and collected some crabs and we had lots of fun playing with the crabs. My mammy was afraid. My dad chased her around the beach. It was fun until my dad slipped and kicked the bucket over. The crabs ran everywhere. It was one of the best days I had.

Once upon a time, there was a woman that really wanted to get married. There was one problem: she was too poor. Then, a few days later, a magic fairy appeared and said to the woman "I will grant you one wish". The woman wished that she had enough money for the wedding and the reception.

"Absolutley!" said the fairy.

That December, she had a lovely wedding.

At The Desert's Edge

2011-05-19T01:10:00.000-07:00

This week we have been learning about the Presentation Brothers in Ghana. We watched a DVD Called ‘At Desert’s Edge’. It shows the educational system in Ghana. We learned that the children of Ghana have to walk 8 miles to get to school.

It takes them two and a half hours to get to school and it only takes us 5 minutes to get to school. They wear uniforms like us. They were uniforms because they have no proper clothes. We were uniforms so we don’t go missing or feel left out.

They get fed three times a week. We bring in our own lunch. They do all the same subjects we do. They do English, History, Religion and Maths.

The Carnival

2011-05-12T03:25:00.000-07:00

On a lovely sunny day in September, me and my mum got on a ride called the Ferris Wheel and we stopped at the top. Then we saw an extensive view of all of the carnival and after that ride, we rode everything else twice!

When we were finished, we pulled a taxi and the side of the road. We only had to wait about two minutes for the taxi - which was quick under the cicumstances because the carnival was SO busy!

Arsenal's Greatest: Transferred!

2011-05-10T02:38:00.000-07:00

There is this team called Arsenal, which became a noticed team in 1945 during the end of World War II. In 1955 Arsenal bought their best ever tranfer player, Liam Brady.

He was allowed join on a free deal from Southampton. On July 1992, Arsenal bought a young Dutchman called Denis Bergkamp. He was from Amsterdam and was bought from AJAX.

In 2004, Arsenal bought a Spanish magician called Cesc Fabregas, he came from Barcelona. I think Arsenal are the best team in the world... way better than United. Don't you agree????

Tasty 3D Shapes!

2011-03-02T08:24:00.000-08:00

Our class has been looking at 3D Shapes.

3D Shapes have three things: vertices, faces and edges.

We decided to make our own shapes using marshmallows (vertices) and cocktail sticks (edges).

We think we might become architects after this lesson!!
We made shapesd such as cubes, square-based pyramids, triangle-based pryamids and traingluar prisms. It was so much fun!

Emily Carr

2011-01-27T06:44:00.000-08:00

Lately, our class has been learning about Native American Indians.
We have just finished looking at a Canadian artist called EMILY CARR.
She was around years ago and she loved painting totem poles and other
things to do with Native Americans.
We really liked her work, so we tried it out for ourselves!!

Class Trip

2011-01-20T06:39:00.000-08:00

Today we decided to take a stroll in Fairview Park.
It was a beautiful day and the class had been working so hard lately, we felt they deserved a nice trip.
We had a picnic in the park and fed some of the seagulls and ducks. They went crazy!

We saw herons, swans, magpies and mallards.
Everyone had a lovely day and we managed to get most of the mud off our shoes before coming back to the classroom!

Scared

2011-01-18T03:05:00.001-08:00

One day, my sister was playing in her room when she saw a spider.

She got a big scare and shouted "Leon! Leon!"

So I ran in and said "What are you shouting for?"

She cried, "I've seen a bug!"

I answered, "It's a fly, not a bug or a spider, silly! Leave it alone and it can't hurt you."

New Year's Resolutions!

2011-01-13T06:43:00.000-08:00

Over the past week, we learned about New Year's Resolutions. We made some of our own resolutions. These are promises we make to ourselves to try and become better people. They have to be REALISTIC and ACHIEVABLE.

For example, Cameron has decided to cut down on Coke and David is going to ease off chocolate. Conor is going to excercise more and Tyrek has decided to practice soccer harder. I'm going to give up on slaggin my sister because it's not nice to slag.

By the end of the year, we will all be better people. Especially me.

The River Race

2011-01-13T01:57:00.000-08:00

Once upon a time, I was in school. My teacher said to me that the class was going kayaking tomorrow and I was really excited. When I went home I told my mum. She said "are you excited?" I said "yes! very excited".

After a while I asked my mum would she get my shoes for the morning. I got dressed to go to school. When I got to school, everyone was talking about kayaking. Eventually, it was time to go on the bus. When I got on, I discovered that we were kayaking in Howth - this was a surprise!

When we arrived, each of us got a kayak. We were having great fun. I was splashing in the water with my friends.

Then suddenly, my teacher said we were all going down to a small river. So we got out and headed down to the source of the river where we were going to have a river race. Soon, it was my turn and I was playing my friend John. I started off and went my fastest... I won!! I had a fantastic feeling.

The next day my mum said we are going on holiday for my birthday next month .I could not wait.

The next month flew by and it was just a day to go. I was playing games all day.When I went to bed I had an awful dream but when I woke up I was really excited!

I got dressed and we drove to the airport, then we got on an airplane. When we arrived at the hotel, the first thing I did was go down to the pool. I had the best time of my life on holiday!

Cian Joyce's Story

2010-11-19T05:48:00.000-08:00

(the spelling are highlighted in red)

One day inside a hospital, a team of surgeons had a patient that needed a special procedure.It was so rare that they needed special tools from New York University Hospital. But before the surgery, the surgeons had a football match. 'Who ever scores the first goal makes the first incision', they decided.
Dr. O' Neil won, and at five o' clock, the chief surgeon had to request a new box of gloves outside the door of the O.R.
Eventually, the sugery started. While Dr. O' Neil was making the incision, the team was waiting for a referee because it was a special situation.
Later on in the surgery, the patient's heart stopped beating so the surgeons had to respond by preforming C.P.R. Finally, the patient started breathing again.
Within the hour, the surgery was complete and the surgeon celebrated in the hospital garden.

Recently, we looked at the art of Piet Mondrian.

He was from the Netherlands and his famous work focussed closely on the primary colours,

blue, yellow and red.

We decided to create our own Mondrian-esque pictures...

and some of us were inspired to go even further!

By Cian and Conor

2010-11-05T04:50:00.001-07:00

The other day, the class was looking at the work of the famous artist, Piet Mondrian.

When we were finished, Ms. O' Carroll went to wash the paint from our pallets.

Look at what happened to our sink!

The Emirates

2010-10-07T00:20:00.000-07:00

It was a beautiful day in July and I felt like I could anything but I couldn't because it was my dad's birthday.
I forgot to but him a present so I had a good think about it when something incredible happened!
I found out that you could but two Arsenal tickets for €50!
I bought them and went home and showed him the tickets and he let out a loud scream.
My dad said the Emirates was the coolest place on earth. The environment was electric in the stadium. We went to the shop and then we bought loads of Arsenal stuff.

We are beginning to try and improve our vocabulary and story-telling. Here's a piece that Ade wrote using loads of interesting openers!

I got up early in the morning, had my breakfast and eventually we went to the airport. We were going to Egypt!!! It took ages and finally we got there. Firstly, we went to our hotel and soon we went on our first visit of the day.

We got on a bus and soon we were driving through the Sahara Desert and then we spotted the pyramid! Later, we got off the bus and stood outside the pyramids. There were camels and sand everywhere!

After a while, it started to rain heavily. I got stuck in the sand! Then I remembered what I had read about quick sand:

Number 1: Don't panic

Number 2: Tell someone to get a rope

Number 3: Don't struggle.

At last, I got out and enjoyed the rest of the trip!

The Evil Witch of the Grassy Pitch

2010-05-21T00:56:00.000-07:00

When I was going to the pitch my granddad said "Where are you going?." "The pitch" I replied, "What pitch?", "The grass pitch" I said. "Ok, I will see you later."

So when I was at the pitch my friend asked "What foot do you shoot with?" , "Both of them" I told him, " But I am good in goals as well." So he asked me to go into goals.
When I was in goal I looked up and saw a witch! She came down and took my friend and I screamed "Oh No!! He was my only friend!" I went after her and grabbed on to the broom and flrew with the witch. She brought us to her house and licked us up in a cell.
Later on I looked out of the cell and saw that the weather was disgraceful. While we were sitting in the cell she was signing a contract. I asked her what hand she wrote with, she said her right. Then I asked when we’d be going home. "NEVER!!" she screamed! So I snatched the keys and when the witch was asleep I got out and ran for life. I said "Bye bye!" to the witch and threw her keys back at her. She chased me and I ran and said "Don’t touch mne you old, ugly witch!" She stopped running and said "Yeah I am really ugly" and she fell to the ground and the cold got to her so she died. We all lived happily ever after.

My Story
(Based on my spellings)

My uncle asked me "Would you like to go fishing?"
I said "Which rod will I be using?"
He answered, "I'll tell you when we get there."
We got to the harbour and we took out our rods and then threw the line in.
My Uncle said "I think I have something".
"What is it?" I asked.
"It's a salmon!" he answered.

I thought to myself, 'I could write a story about this...'

The Naughty Boy

I looked at the weather - which was bad.

I went to see what it was to be like tomorrow. As a stood there looking, a witch flew across the sky.

"What are you going to do to me?" I asked.

" You have been a naughty boy," she answered.

I was sent off in a football match last May. It was in the preliminary round of the Scott Pierce Cup. Some might say it was an innocent tackle. Others say it was like a clip from a Kung Fu film.

Crime and Punishment

I joined the police force in June. I was very good but my manager said "You would not be able to go and arrest someone". However, a few weeks later, I got a job to investigate a robbery and when I got there, there was nothing wrong!

So, I went into the local shop and siad to an old man "I am an officer. I got a report of a robbery".

The man said, "Oh yes. There were a few kids in the shop and they robbed some licourice".

So I sighed and told the old man "I'll get on it right away".

When I caught the kids, I made them pay for the licourice and I went back and said "I QUIT!"

The seargent said "No, I'm sorry for all of that. I'll get you another assignment".

I said "Alright. But it better be good!".

I went and I got on it. It was a bank that got robbed and I single-handedly caught the robbers and I arrested them.

The man who owned all the money got it back and then he gave me an award. It was in the Sunday Newspaper! It said "Local Police Officer Caught Bank Robbers and Earned BIG REWARD".

My Story: Using Connectives

By Luke Murphy

I flew to the shop because I was forced to go. I had to get milk, coke, the Herald anf some ice-cream for €1.50.

Then I drove in my sports car to earn some money as the youngest taxi man but I forgot my keys to the house. Eventhough I forgot my keys I had a back up plan. After my job, I tried my back up plan. I climbed though the window but then I saw the door open!!

The Island

by Evan Pierce

We could hear the cry of a wolf. We knew it was a wolf by the long, howling cry it was making. We were starnded on an island a thousand miles from home.We wetre on our way to holidaying in North America when the boat we were on sank. Five of us swam to shore. We mad a camp straight away and got a fire going.

It wasn't long before night came and all the noises on the island began. Whenthe morning came we walked. We walked all aound the island. Survival would be tough, but we knew if we wnated to see our homes again we would have to be brave and tough. There could be a jungle on the island with many creatures and many adventures to share with you...

Our Trip to Bull Island!!!

By Jack Kenna.

We went to Bull Island on Tuesday on a class outing. We left the school at 10 o' clock and got the bus up the road. We went on a long walk to the visitors centre. When we arrived there, a man called Pat showed us a slideshow. It was really interesting. Then we looked at different energy sources like solar, wind and earth power. My favourite power was solar power. Then we saw lots of birds, that was cool. We got back to school at 2:30 pm. We had a great time and learned a lot about nature.

The Robbery

By Evan Pierce

A long time ago, there lived a detective in Dublin. He was known as Shrek. Shrek was fifty when he heard about the murder of Jonny Forty Coats. He was told to go to a house in Sheriff Street to find out what really happened.

The house was haunted. When he walked in, he could feel the presence of a ghost. That is why nobody went into the house. When he went to the front room, there was a birthday card on the table. It read: 'Specially for you, Jonny Forty Coats'.

He heard a noise coming from the basement. He went to have a look and there was a miniature 'Scooby Doo'... Yes! A Puppy Doo! There, standing with a scissors, looking very suspicious.

'I killed Jonny Forty Coats', he said in a happy voice.

Here are some of the stories we wrote for homework!!

“I met this gorgeous girl where my Granny lives. Each day, we go on romantic walks. She is from Sweden so there is a bit of a language problem. I have to say, she is a real character!
By Paul Kinlan.

“My Granny is a real character. Every Sunday, she bakes gorgeous cakes and gives us all one each. One Sunday, she burned all the cakes and her language was disgraceful!”
By Jack Kenna

“My Granny is very good. When we go to see her, she always gives us some sweets and some biscuits. She is like my nanny. My nanny is a great character. She plays with us and sings songs for us all the time. When she is going out, she always looks gorgeous. She has lovely clothes. She does not like to hear kids saying bad language. She likes us to be kind to each other.
That’s my nanny and my granny for you!”

My Colour Poem: Red

By Luke Murphy

Red is the colour blood,
An a sack
And an old, raggy sock.
There’s love and fun
But there was a gun,
Then it was the end for them.
There was anger and violence
All over the world.
Then it was time to say ‘bye bye’.

What is Red?

By James McCarthy

Red is the colour of my bed
And a head too.
A flamingo reminds me of bingo,
An angry, red fire extinguisher.
A red Christmas bow.
A hard-working pencil or crayon,
Complimenting a copy.
A robin red breast sitting in a tree
Over a couple kissing
A lovely ladybird living on a leaf.
A juicy red apple.
This is red to me.
