Summer Term 2017

On the

15th May

2017 Year 3 went to

Colchester

Castle. It

took one

and half

hours on

the coach.

When Year

3 got there

they

played on the ruins and took a class photo. When

they first got in they had a look at the History of

the Castle on the ground floor. They learnt all

about Mosaics and who lived in the Castle. After that, the Year 3s went upstairs and looked at the

Roman artefacts. There were Roman coins and

interesting facts about Boudicca. Next they had

lunch and had a play outside. After everyone had

finished they went back inside the Castle. Next

they went down under the Castle into the Ruins of

the Temple of Claudius. They had to go through

archways and learn about battling in the Roman times. It was so much

fun for them! When the

Year 3s had come back

up they went to a les-

son room. They

watched a video then

had to tackle building

a Roman house and an

Iron Age Roundhouse.

It was very hard! It

took the Year 3s a very

long time to build but it was all worth it in the end.

After they had built it everyone took a photo in the

one that they constructed. Sadly Year 3 then had to leave. They all had fun and were happy to be back at

school.

On the 14th of June Year 4

and their families met togeth-

er for Year 4 Class Mass. The

Mass was held in the Year 4

Classroom. Father John was

there to do the Mass. It took place at 2:00 pm. The Mass

was about the Nine Beati-

tudes that Jesus told stand-

ing on a hill in front of a

huge crowd. To start the

Mass Rory said the opening

reading. Then some more of

Year Four said some things

to do with the Beatitudes.

The first song they sung was

‘A new commandment’. It

was a very successful mass

and at least 1 person came

for each child. There was tea and coffee for the parents

after it. There was also juice

for the children or adults.

Lara said, “I think it was a

very successful and quiet.”

Joseph said, “I think it was

good and it went well.” I think

everyone listened very well to Father John we all sat there

quietly and soon the mass

had ended.

far as they ever went.

One of their biggest at-tacks was when they

killed the monks and

burnt the monastery after

a GIANT ATTACK. Now it

The Vikings were brilliant at sail-

ing. We LOVED this topic!

Year Four learn about the Vicious Vikings! Last half term the Year 4s

topic was on the Vicious Vi-

kings.

We learned a lot about the

Vikings this term so we’re

going to tell you about it.

Did you know that the Vi-

kings were famous for their

sailing and their vicious Vi-

king long ships? Some of

them went to France and Ita-

ly, and one group of Vikings

went to Canada but didn’t

stay that long and that’s as

On the 28th of June 2017 I inter-

viewed Miss Manning.

Miss Manning went to Sacred

Heart for her primary school and

grew up in Ware as well.

She went to St Marys for her sec-

ondary school. And went to the

University of Hertfordshire for

learning how to teach.

But before teaching, Miss Manning

worked in M&S at the cafe depart-

ment.

Her favourite hobby is reading, her

favourite book is Gone Girl by

Gillian Flynn. Her favourite sport is swimming. She likes all kinds of

foods but especially chorizo. Miss

Manning’s favourite music is either

Indie or Pop.

When she was little Miss Manning

wanted to become a policewoman.

But when she grew older she want-

ed to become a teacher.

Miss Manning doesn’t speak any

languages but would like to learn.

She has one brother who is two

years

older

than her.

A Note from Miss Smith

I am really impressed by the children who have worked hard in

Newspaper Club this term. The children have written some interesting

articles and tried hard to bring you the best news from our term at

Sacred Heart.

All of the articles have been edited by the children who wrote them.

If you are in KS2 and you would like to join Newspaper Club, please

come along to a meeting on Wednesdays at 12:15pm.

If you are a parent and you have any expertise you would like to give

us, please email and let me know.

Congratulations Newspaper Club!

the apostles

had courage

and the apos-tles spread the

good news.

The Holy Spirit

had come

down and gave them the

fruits of the Holy Spirit and

made it so they could talk to

anyone in their own lan-

guage. This was so they could

tell everyone about Jesus.

At our school we had Mass

and then every class did a

performance. Year 3 did a song that we learnt in class

and made up actions for. Re-

ception did a great dance and

Year 2 did a dance as well.

The other classes also did

songs which everyone en-

joyed. Then we had an ice

lolly to celebrate!

This term our school had a Pen-

tecost birthday because we were

celebrating the birthday of

church.

The story of Pentecost

The apostles [disciples] locked

them self in a dark room praying

to Jesus. Before Jesus died he

said “Don’t worry the Holy Spirit

will come.”

Suddenly, a winding tongue of

fire rested on the apostles’ heads.

They were amazed by this! Then

We can’t wait to celebrate Pente-

cost again next year!
