During this winter season it starts to get really cold and when it does the chances of becoming sick are much higher as our body cannot stand the cold temperature. When we get sick our body feels weak and we are unable to do the things we love. This is where vaccines come in. Vaccines help protect our bodies from getting sick, but how?.
The Three Sieves
Socrates Story “The Three Sieves” tells us about the importance of thinking before you speak. We need to ask ourselves is it kind, true necessary and if it’s not, don’t speak.
My Beatitudes
If I met Jesus in a park and he asked me … “Are you living by my beatitudes?” I would say…
Stations of the Cross
Last term on April 11 we performed the Stations of the Cross for the whole school. It took us a bit of time to get used to our roles and what we had to do but over time with more practice we eventually got better. I got the role I never expected which was Mary. When I got told I was very shocked but grateful. When the day finally came to do the play we made sure our costumes were neat and tidy because we definitely didn’t want to go out and look like a mess! Though all of us were nervous we did all did a good job. Stations off the Cross is Jesus’ journey before he was crucified.
Pennies For Hitler
A lifeless body laying behind me, taking my first steps into a place I once knew, now crumbled on the dusty concrete ground. Chao’s every turn I make. Bombs bursting into orange flames of fire. Destruction, death… representing the pain and hatred towards our people. Cries of pain and agony coming from buildings that were once a family’s home. “Family.” Continuing to walk as I wipe my bloody, sweaty face. How could someone be so uncompassionate? Each step I take feels like a nightmare, a nightmare in reality. Clear blue skies soon turn to pink polluted skies, getting hotter as more fire emerges.
Afraid for Aunt Miriam, is she safe? Curious if I will ever see her again. Turning the corner I notice my favourite place, the library. It’s not in its best state but it is still standing. Books lay untouched on the rubbled ground. Pages of ripped books flutter in the pink sky. Mrs Huntley must be home, she is nowhere to be seen. What if her house was demolished? I don’t even want to think about it. Everyone I pass looks miserable, sorrowful, like someone has sucked the happiness out of their souls.

Peter’s Journey
As I walked for miles, exhausted, I spotted families praying to get out of this mess. Feet ached with no destination. Shivering cold winds rush past, shaking with coldness. My feet feel bare and dry. People with injuries suffering from their burning pain. The rough ground made it difficult to walk while explosive echo’s replayed in my head, erasing all other thoughts. I felt in danger everywhere I looked. I wondered if this would ever stop? Looking up at my dad who carried all the belongings in one huge bag, I know he’s in pain, we all are. We came to a destination, well not an actual destination but a place we could finally rest. Huddled with my dad, laying on a spare jacket for warmth in the freezing cold. Feeling an ease of mind in my dads arms.
