💭 Conflict Resolution on Minecraft 💭

We have been building worlds on Minecraft. During these sessions we sometimes have arguments over which character gets certain materials or if a characters takes something from another. We decided to look at ways we could resolve these arguments by working together, sharing resources and helping each other build in our online world.

✨ 1500th Anniversary of St Colmcille ✨

On the 7th December we celebrated the 1500th anniversary of St. Colmcille. We celebrated by watching a special online mass and completed activities about St Colmcille. Our favourite activity was the stain glass windows we created for our classroom, they look so pretty in the sun.
