100 Word Challenge by Noel
As he ran, the cold frosty air separated around him. He was exhausted, he was not running from any real thing, he was running from his own imagination. He could have been running from anything but he was running faster than he had ever run before. But then he stopped. He peered through the misty vines, the forest he was running through was dark ,murky and full of dark shadows. He pulled back the vines and behind it was a stone sofa. Hard and stiff with a small cat above. He sat down. That was the last thing he would ever do!
Letters and pictures from our Pen Pals in Canada
We received letters from our Canadian pen pals this week. They are from École des Saints-Anges, Saint-Lambert, Québec, Canada. Their fist language is French, but they wrote to us in English. They told us all about the very exciting snow sports they take part in. We have written back to them. We had done a mystery Skype call with them in January. It was very great to get letters in the post. 
Choir Concert – Pitch Perfect
‘PITCH PERFECT’
St Molaga’s School Choirs will be joined by award-winning Chamber Choir ANIMA from Dublin on Sunday 8th March.
Together the choirs will perform a concert of choral music in Ss Peter and Paul’s Church Balbriggan at 7pm. The programme will have something for everyone with sacred and secular songs from around the world. This is a concert NOT to be missed!! All monies raised on the night will go towards upgrading St Molaga’s playgrounds. Tickets are €5 for adults and €3 for children.
Mystery Skype Call
We had another mystery Skype call today. This time it was a tough one. Eventually we found that the class was in Nassau, Bermuda. We’ve never done a mystery Skype call with a class from Bermuda, and they had never done a call with a class from Europe. It was really interesting talking to them and we learned a lot from them.
Their school is called Lyford Cay International School. This is their webpage http://www.lcis.bs/page

This week was Engineering week. We learned about different types of Engineers. There are lots of different types. We had an engineering circuit to learn about different types of engineering. WE made cars and vehicles and used gears like mechanical engineers, we made bridges like civil engineers and put together limbs and figures like Biomedical engineers. IN science we built circuits and used switches and motors like electronic engineers. Click below to see some pictures.
Music In The Classroom
We were in the National Concert Hall there were people dressed up as cats, wolves ,pigs and frogs. The orchestra were good. The funny thing I thought was the cat meowing . The voice was hilarious. There were three people dressed up as pigs. One was dressed up as a wolf and there were like about six or five people dressed up as bricks and straws and the story was about the three little piggies . Two of them went into the straw house. The one who was dressed up as a wolf blew the house down and the other one went into the brick house but the wolf could not blow the house down but when he went down the chimney the fire was on and he died. The orchestra were very loud using the instruments. There were girls who were doing ballet. The songs were Hi Ho, Mission Impossible and Tubby the Tuba which was very sad.

Music In The Classroom
On Tuesday the 10 of February 2015 there was a big orchestra at Music In The Classroom. It was amazing. It took an hour to get there. The songs we sang were Mission Impossible, Hi Ho, High Shcool Musical. They told a story of Tubby the Tuba and they told us a story about The Three Little Pigs and Swan Lake. There were ballet academy who played people in the show. We sang all the songs together and some of the songs were funny. Tubby the Tuba had a song that was very sad. Then when the show was over I was very sad.

Our trip to the Library
Today we went on a trip to the Library here is our recount. At 9:15 we left the school and walked to the Library. At approximately 9:35 we arrived in the Library. We were told to wait a few minutes. At 9:45 we were told to walk upstairs and take a seat. A few minutes later walked into the room.She told us her name was Jenna. (She was really nice)We played a game were you have to say your name and age and what you would do with a million euro, while bouncing a balloon on your head. Next we had to arrange some cards in the right order of the life cycle of clothes. Then we did a group project of what we would do if we were in a scenario. We learned lots but we still had a great time. We checked the labels of our clothes and put a piece of blue tack on a map of where their from. Last of all we made hand warmers out of socks and put colored jewels it was all a lot of fun.
