Spreading the Good News

Today we did R.E on Spreading the Good News. It was about St Paul and where he traveled. I learnt that Paul made a lot of friends while on his Journey. Here is a picture of mine

Jesus Strand - Religious Education

During term 1 we have been learning about Jesus the Son of God. This is my cube on how Jesus showed us that God loved us all as His children. We are all blessed with the gift of faith, hope and love.

Charism

Year 5 and 6: Charism

Did you know the reason Good Shepherd School named their syndicates Connolly and Sheridan? Connolly and Sheridan were the names of the first two sisters that worked at Good Shepherd School when it opened. That is just one of the fun facts we learnt this week when we explored the charism of our school. The charism of our school is the flavour of our school, it is what makes us Good Shepherd School. Over the week we looked at the history of the school and unpacked the visual Image of the Good Shepherd Cross with the values, scripture, feast days and the St Mary MacKillop sayings. We unpacked the values and why we have those values. In groups we identified what each value looked, sounded and felt like before making up definitions. A fact that I learnt was Connolly and Sheridan were one of the two sisters of Mary MacKillop.

Our saint posters

A couple of days ago we had to make posters of saints that we had researched. We each had to pick a saint and I picked St. Nicholas. I really like St. Nicholas because he is the patron saint of children, repentant thieves and other cool stuff I like. He is really friendly and kind from all the stories I read on the internet.

I enjoyed this because it took a lot of thought and effort and I'm proud of how it came out.  

 

R.E.

This morning we learnt about Abraham and Sarah (Abram and Sarai) Me and Joey did slide 3. My favourite part was probably the end because I liked the drawing, colours and the picture. Abraham and Sarah are people who got chosen from God to name their baby boy Isaac. God said you have to move to another country and they moved to that country with their servants and their animals. Because they did what he asked he rewarded them with a baby.
