What students are learning about

This week some classes have taken the new painting and had a closer look.

They have thought about the symbols in the image and the meaning behind the psalm.

It is early days but I love to see how students begin to explore new concepts and ideas. This is a feflection from Grace H in Year 5 who has created her own version of the image and included some of her understanding.

Catholic Life and Reflection

Who would have thought it? I love walking the dog in the morning! I am up and out of the house pretty quickly so I am a bit asleep as he drags me up the driveway. It takes a few minutes but I am awake by the time we round the corner.

I just love it. It is calm and clear and there is a certain quality of light that I always love in the mornings. Chip checks his social media (aka sniffs at every tree) and slobbers and I look for birds and notice the bark on trees. I don’t think he behaves as well for me as he does for my husband but I don’t mind.

Chip knows when it is time for a walk. So, my second revelation is that dogs, like small children, like routine! He gets antsy around 4.30pm in the afternoon and this is what you see wherever you go, until you take him for a walk. He also knows he gets fed after that so…..yeah!

As life changes, my eldest just moved out of home, I am glad to know that I can still adapt. I never thought I would be the morning dog walker or that not having all my kids at home would be bearable but here we are and I am ok.

Don’t get me wrong, I will sleep in if I can and I miss my eldest but I am ok.
