Religion Exam 2008



Today Father Joe Tynan came to visit our school for our religion exam. First he went to the junior room. After first break he came into our room. We started talking about our Alive-O and our favourite stories in it. Most of us said "Jacobs Stone" was our favourite. Then we started talking about saints. An example is Saint Patrick. He lived in Wales and was kidnapped by pirates and brought to Ireland. He was told to stay on a hill and watch animals. Somtimes he was so hungry he ate animal food. He was rescued and went back to Wales. Then he had a dream that told him to go to Ireland. So he did and he bainished all the snakes and told them about God. Then before he left we sang a few songs like 'Go now in Peace', 'I know this story' and 'Peace will Come'. He left at half twelve. It was great fun. We would like to thank Father Joe Tynan and we hope to see him agian soon!

Hi everyone. Thankyou for such a warm welcome to your school on Wednesday. I enjoyed my visit and was very impressed by your enthusiasm and knowledge. The singing was excellent too and most entertaining. Both classrooms deserve great credit for being so well prepared for my visit. Well done. I look forward to another visit in the future. I wish you GOd's blessing in the year ahead.

Fr. Joe
