The Liturgical Calendar

Cross Country

After weeks of training, this is the day I’ve been waiting for. I’ve been trying to lose a lot of weight so that on the day of the cross country I could have a chance to be 1st 2nd or 3rd place.

Straight after lunch on the 13th of August when the bell rang we all rushed to the lineup area so that we could get straight into the cross country races.

Finally everyone went quiet and listened to the teacher. Everyone was excited and a bit nervous as well. We went to the courts and were put into our age groups. I was in the nine year olds group and I was in the front of the line.

Later the teachers sorted out the juniors and came back to us so we could get started. They started from the 12 year olds and made their way down from ages. It took awhile for them to sort out the senior students, and it was quite boring to wait for them. Finally they got to us and we followed Miss G to the start line. Suddenly Miss G hit the blocks loudly and it gave me a fright. When I looked in beside me everyone was heading off down to the street so I ran as fast as I could to try beat the students in front of me.

Later, I found myself in the third place just behind Stephanie so I ran straight up the hill and then I was in the lead. Suddenly I looked behind me and I saw my dad in the taxi watching me with a strange look on his face, he looked like he was just going to yell and cheer for me. I stopped and waved to him but I should of not done that because everyone was running past me and I thought that waving to my dad was a distraction.

Later I was halfway past the street and I saw some St Mary’s College students waving the orange flag and cheering loudly. After a while I caught up to some of the Room 7 students when I was turning around the second to last corner of the race. Suddenly I felt a really bad stitch all over me and I started to get dizzy, really hot and weak. When I was just running to the last corner I suddenly and no one even noticed me and so I was left alone all by myself. After a few seconds I got up and started to jog the rest of the way. Finally I passed the last corner and ran as fast as I could to beat Ma’ata but she was still in front of me.

Finally I was at school and I was just running up the driveway when I saw Stephanie going to check in so I  tried to catch up to her. Ma’ata stopped and went to her car and I ran the whole way to get checked in to become second place. Miss G said to Ma’ata “Ma’ata, Rosalina just beat you because you went to your car”.

I was at the end of the race and I was proud of myself to take a place in 1st, 2nd, 3rd in the Cross Country, but I was also exhausted.

The Assumption Of Mary

We celebrate the Assumption because that is when Mother Mary passed away and her body Assumed into heaven. Some people say that she went into a dormition which means was in a deep sleep at that time, and some say that she died. When she passed away or was asleep her body rose up to heaven and that was her heavenly birthday, which is on the 15th of August. Pope Pius was the one who declared that her body went to heaven because nobody on the earth ever found the body so that’s why they said that she went up to heaven.When Mother Mary Assumed to heaven she became the Queen of heaven and she was in the middle of God and Jesus. Many people say that she died in many places but she died in Jerusalem.

Ant Army

Under the schoolyard there lived female worker ants that lived underground. They had a job to do every morning which was they had to go to the school and look inside the children‘s school bags. They found things like some books and a few marbles, a ball and one sock with a muddy jumper.

Later they found a cream donut and it was wrapped in glad wrap. They all gathered up into a group and ripped the glad wrap off. They all went back to their home.
