We did everything from writing the story, typing them up, designing and coloring the illustrations to binding the book ourselves. It was a very big project but one which we really enjoyed.

On Tuesday we had a storyteller in with us. The fifth and sixth classes came together in the Arts hall for the afternoon and Seosamh told us some really interesting and indeed some disgusting old Irish stories.
Wednesday was a really busy day. First we had a Wassa Wassa dance workshop in the PE hall. The teacher who came in to do it with us was really cool and friendly and we all really enjoyed it. Some of us enjoyed it so much we couldn't stop dancing and leave the stage!

That wasn't all we did on Wednesday! In the afternoon we had a shadow puppet making workshop with Susan. We got to make our own shadow puppets and test them out on the stage. It was a really fun afternoon and we put in a lot of work and effort.
Those were the highlights of our week.,Our next big event will be the winter concerts!
Well done to our two assembly winners this week: Aaron and Anton. Super work lads, keep it up!
