Last Friday yr 5/6 went to the mock baptism in Saint John’s church Alltwen to baptise a doll. First we got on the coach. When it dropped us of then we went in to the church and then played some music. Then we said some prayers and said some words. Next we used holy water to baptise Le Bron Stevens. Then we had some food and cake. At last the coach picked us up and we went back to school.

Friday 8th March

Today, it is world book day. The whole school is dressed up and everyone looks fantastic.  We had to bring our favourite book in. I brought my secret unicorn. So you had a choice of wearing your costume or pj’s. Also everyone in the school is doing activities. Also some of Mrs Jones’ children came up to tell us their stories what they made, they were amazing. We all loved their stories! 

On Thursday, 7th March, year 5/6 took part in a whole school eistedfod for our welsh week celebrations. For the entire week, we had to learn a poem and lots and lots of Welsh songs, including the national anthem. Then on the Thursday, in the afternoon, we went to the hall to join the rest of the school to sing our songs and recite our poems in front of a judge who came to see how good our school is at Welsh. Then, the following day (on Friday the 8th of March) we celebrated world book day by dressing up as our favourite book characters and creating book reviews about our favourite book. However, other people were allowed to come to school in pyjamas as well as this.

Today we did a review on our favourite book and then created the cover of the book on a bigger piece of paper. Some of us did not like doing this activity but most of the class were thrilled. We also did an alphabetical order of children’s book titles – it was extremely fun! We were allowed to go in the library to look for some hard finds. All in all the day I think has been really funny and very interesting. We loved it!

On Friday 8th of March our class dressed up to celebrate World Book Day and brought in one pound to raise money to buy more books for our library. Everyone is enjoying the day so far!

Today the whole school celebrated World book day and we wrote a book review. All of us dressed up – you could wear pjs or dress as your favourite character from a book!

On Friday 8th February 2019, our class celebrated Dydd Miwsig Cymru (Welsh Music Day) by learning lots and lots and lots of different Welsh songs by some Welsh singers and some English singers too! In the morning before play, we learnt songs by Welsh singers, from bands called Swnami and Candelas. Then after play we had to write about the two of the bands. In the afternoon, we did the same thing but with ones that sing in English, such as Tom Jones and Catotonia. 🎹🎶🎸🎤🎧🎵♩

On Thursday year 5/6 went to the church to have a mock baptism. I wore a blue sparkly dress with gold glittery ballerina shoes and a gold bracelet. When we arrived at the church Revrin Jane walked us into the church and she gave us a booklet with all the lines and songs also we had to sit down and find a seat then all the parents and god parents had to stand at the front and say their lines. After the Baptism was over there was a table filled with cakes, biscuits and crisps and much more and then it was time to go back to school ready for home time.

Last Friday 15th of February year 5/6 went to a church to experience a mock baptism and they met reverend Jane for a special day. This day was special because we had an mock baptism. The baby was called le bron Stevens. Reverend Jane had some special water called holy water and reverend Jane poured it on the baby’s head. Then she used healing oil on the baby Le Bron .

Year 5/6 have had an amazing day and everyone had some cake to take home. We all had an after party and everyone enjoyed the cakes, food and drinks!

Thank you to Reverend Jane.
