OUR SPECIAL COMMUNION HYMN:   ‘CIRCLE OF FRIENDS’

You have friends, you are not alone

Thanks to them, you’re not on your own

You are strong even when you feel small

From the rain, they will shelter you

In your pain, they will comfort you,

They will always pick you up when you fall

Circle of friends, All around you,

Circle of friends, Strong and true,

Circle of friends, Always there for you.

Even when you are far apart

To your friends, you’re joined heart to heart

Far away you are not on your own.

You’re not there, but they think of you

In their prayer, they remember you

You are never ever truly alone.

Circle of friends, All around you

Circle of friends, Strong and true

Circle of friends, Always there for you.

My Shepherd is the Lord

He tends all my needs

By quiet streams, He plants a dream

Of peace and love for me.

Sometimes when I’m afraid

Sad and all alone

You make my tears disappear

With your touch of joy.

You shepherd me.

You give me food to eat,

Bless me every day

You give me rest as your guest

Forever in your home

You shepherd me.

My Shepherd is the Lord

By quiet streams, He plants a dream

Of peace and love for me.

He shepherds me.

This is my body, broken for you,

bringing you wholeness, making you free.

Take it and eat it, and when you do,

do it in love for me.

This is my blood, poured out for you,

bringing forgiveness, making you free.

Take it and drink it, and when you do,

do it in love for me.

Love one another: I have loved you,

and I have shown you how to be free;

serve one another, and when you do,

do it in love for me, do it in Love for me.

As I kneel before you,

As I bow my head in prayer,

Take this day, make it yours

and fill me with your love.

Ave Maria, Gratia plena,

Dominus tecum, Benedicta tu.

All I have I give you,

Every dream and wish are yours,

Mother of Christ,

Mother of mine, present them to my Lord.

Ave Maria, Gratia plena,

Dominus tecum, Benedicta tu.

As I kneel before you,

And I see your smiling face,

Ev’ry thought, ev’ry word

Is lost in your embrace.

Ave Maria, Gratia plena,

Dominus tecum, Benedicta tu.

Céad míle fáilte romhat a Íosa, a Íosa.
Céad míle fáilte romhat a Íosa.
Céad míle fáilte romhat, a Sháanathóir.
Céad míle, míle fáilte romhat      Íosa, a Íosa.

Stories of Jesus, His work and His world.    Chorus

Photo Journal of 3rd Class: Ms O’Mahony’s Lego Workshop

When we had finished making our catapults, we were given rubber bands to launch. The band acted as the load and we practised using different amounts of effort to see how far we could get the band to go. We had a plastic container to aim into!

We then had a class competition with Róisín and Megan winning the launch. Look at our gallery below:

Lego workshop

On Wednesday Ms. Cully’s class went to a Lego workshop in the P.E. hall with Rob and Niamh from Learnit. We talked about the different types of engineers. We learned that engineers design, build and test.

First we got into pairs. We had a box with all the different parts of Lego that we needed to make a catapult. We worked together and followed the instructions carefully. The main parts of the catapult were the pivot point, the load and the effort.

How far the load went depended on where the pivot point was placed. The further away the pivot point was placed from the load, the further the load went. We used rubber rings as our load.

We had so much fun learning about how to build with Lego. It was great working as a team and that made the experience even better. We would love to go to a Learnit summer camp!
