Cycle Safety

This week we have started Cycle Safety. After Day one the students have already done a great job! They have learnt how to fit their helmet correctly and to do hand signals for when they go on the road. 

Sacred Heart Feast Day

We had a wonderful day celebrating our special school! We started the day with Mass in the Church and later played games together. The students blew up ballons, decorated the concrete and did some amazing artwork.

Canterbury CHAMPS

* The Cosmodome *

Sacred Heart were very fortunate to have an astronomer come and visit the school. We had an exciting experience inside the Cosmodome and learnt lots about the milky way, different stars and Matariki. This was a fantastic way to engage us in this terms topic. 

Prayer Flags for Nepal

The whole school took time to write a prayer for the people in Nepal at this devastating time. Lord hear our prayers.  

Social Studies 

We were learning to understand the effect of WW1 on young men and women. The students made journal entries and letters written from the perspective of those serving in the war. 

Raziel's Letter 

Dear Mother

Days passed by with terror building up in my heart. Just letting you know I strongly regret volunterring. Lice, rats, blood everwhere. My mind is recording a mixed tape of several lives that passed before my eyes. Gunshots. They rang in my ear, but my heart beats unsteadily, agitated. I could feel the menacing animal like glares from the Germans. This is a disaster. The smell of rotting flesh worsened under the sun as some of the bodies were infested with hundreds of pests. I have a mix of emotions right now. My gut squirms and I've lost another friend in my arms. Don't think I'm innocent anymore mum. My hands are bloodstained. The trenches had a musty smell and I've had to sleep and camouflage within the lifeless bodies. I've killed ruthlessly. I've given no thought about it. I've killed. I've shot. I've bombed and I apologise.

Your Son
