La Salle Soccer Gala Day

Soccer Gala Day

By Dylan and Michael N

On the 16th of October on Wednesday the Year 5 boys went to La Salle Bankstown located in Chapel Rd for a Soccer Gala Day. The schools that attended were St John Vianney, St Brendan, St Felix, St Mary’s and Christ the King.

We played 3 games plus 1 final. The top two schools making it into the finals. In our 1st game we played St John Vianney the score was 5-0. In the second game we won 6-0 against St Brendan’s. In the 3rd game against St Felix we also won 6-0. We played against St John Vianney in the Grand final and the score was 1-0, it was a tough game. We will be getting medals because we won the Grand final.

We had a very fun day and it was a very hot day. Some people who scored and they were Michael N, Luke, Jack, Christopher, Dylan, Jason, Chica, Charbel, Samuel and Christian B. Congratulations to all teams who entered the gala day!

Modality

Modality Challenge

By Mikayla and Michael.N

It all started with Miss Lee going to a meeting where Tom Barrett  (a man from England), gave Miss Lee a challenge for our class to do. The challenge was that we had to write at least 50 sentences using at least one word of modality in each sentence that we write. We ended up  doing  over 200 sentences!!!

Everyone earned 13 merits. We also had a mini challenge for the sentence number:

• Jason wrote the 50th sentence
• Michael and Charbel got the 100th sentence
• Christian B and Jack got the 150th sentence 
• Gaby got the 200th sentence

They each earnt a raffle ticket. Everyone did a great job with their sentences. Gabby N wrote a fantastic 29 sentences!

We came up with some great sentences. Here are some good ones-

It is possible that it is going to be sunny tomorrow (Angelica)

It is completely unacceptable for schools to have animals in the classroom. (Tracey)

It is obvious that there are eight planets (Michael V)

It is vital that all children learn to swim (Gabby N)

I seriously recommend that smoking should be illegal (Ashleigh)

It is definite that I will eat chicken tonight (Luke)

It is completely unacceptable for children to smoke. (Georgia)

Mahrae and Emma created a wordle of our sentences:
