St Joseph's Day Tabloid Sport

Tuesday 19th March was St Joseph’s Day Feast Day. The whole school attended mass to celebrate the leadership Saint Joseph showed. Saint Joseph is also special to our school because Saint MacKillop and the Sisters of St Joseph were inspired by Saint Joseph. Saint Joseph is also the foster father of Jesus. The following day, the whole school came together to celebrate with fun tabloid sports in our houses. We all got to play so many fun and exciting games. Thank you to our leaders who prepared this.

My Accident Story

The Hole in my Knee
February 2019
By Luka
I am learning to entertain my audience through a recount.

Have you ever had a hole in your knee with lots of blood spilling out everywhere and you screaming like someone died? Well that is exactly what happened to me. I was about 5 years old at the time and had a love of skateboarding and I thought it would be a good idea to do something pretty dangerous. Looking back now I know it was not and will never be a good idea.

It was a very normal Sunday at my Grandad’s house, my brother, my friends and I were playing around. We were having fun just skateboarding then my friend said, “Let's build a big ramp.” I yelled back agreeing with him, “Yeah! Let's do it.” I mean I could of said no but I was to excited, and come on what better way to entertain yourself then have a massive ramp to skate on.

However it sounded like a lot of fun but when we started building the ramp it actually was rather boring! Hours later in the evening it was finally ready… The ramp was built I thought it was the best thing I was ever going to do in my life. I was so focused, positioning myself at the top of the ramp, taking a big breath in, in my head the thought, “Let’s do this.” I yelled out to those at the bottom, “Here we go, 5,4,3,2,1 GO! Yeah! It was so fun until I pushed it too much… I wanted to do a flip. My brother and friends yelled out NO, as if they could stop me. Waving their arms back and forth, I waved back and lost control of the skateboard...

Aaahhh!!! I fell off the skateboard, trapping my foot under the ramp, hitting my knee hard onto the ground. Looking down, blood everywhere, a giant hole in my knee, people screaming at the sight. My mum and dad hearing the scream both came rushing out of my Grandad’s house. Picking me up, they rushed me to the car and we left so fast that we even went through orange / red light as we raced to home.

When we got home, my dad wrapped my knee in white bandages. It was really hard for me to sleep that night, and the following days to come. I think I have learnt my lesson from taking on a giant skateboard ramp.

Swimming sports

Room 6 had a wonderful day at swimming sports. When we all went to the turf we split up into our houses. Thank you Sharyn and parents for helping us with the non competitive swimming and competitive. Also thank you parents for coming along and supporting your children. Good shepherd students thank the teachers very warmly, as every year as they set up and prepare this event for us. I’m sure that every student enjoyed the event. I saw everyone compete with my own eyes and they all did well. The people who lost don’t have to be sad because they should be grateful they got a swim in the hot weather also because there’s always time and effort to improve.

Ash Wednesday

Today was Ash Wednesday. We went to church and sang some hymns, got the ashes on our foreheads,
sung happy birthday to a little girl starting school on her birthday! We then went up and got a blessing
We did make an attempt to keep our ashes on our foreheads, but that was a fail due to swimming and
itching it off. We had a good day and hope everyone did too. season of Lent and it is a time of preparation.

Shrove Tuesday

Tuesday was Shrove Tuesday. We all had a great day in room 6. The festivities started with the burning of the
ashes on the turf. This was a new and exciting experience that not many of us had seen before.

Later on during Religious Education we learnt more about Shrove Tuesday and Lent. People
used to get rid of all their luxury items such as flour, sugar, butter, eggs and milk by making pancakes.
We were even able to enjoy some pancakes of our own. We all thought it was a great start to lent and
we are looking forward to the lent season as we prepare for the death and resurrection of Jesus.
 We are the season of Lent and it is a time of preparation.

Shine Week

A sea of orange flood Good Shepherd School on Friday the 8th of March. This week was shine week. We raise money to help people whose lives are affected domestic violence. In support we all wore orange clothes and brought a gold coin donation to help the charity. Here are some pictures:
