Advent candle
Megan lit the third candle of Advent on Monday. The pink candle symbolises joy that comes from Christ in our lives to truly be joyful and simple.
German Christmas
GerNikolaus arrived to the German classes of OLS on 6th December. In Germany, children clean their boots and leave them outside for Nikolas to fill with chocolate. We aren’t convinced that the boots were too well cleaned, maybe the girls’ good behaviour made up for it?
First year Assembly
All First Year students had an end of term assembly during pastoral care on Tuesday with Ms. Donlon and their Form teachers. The students looked back on photos of their time in OLS so far. Certificates and prizes were then handed out to each student with the most merits. Well done to Amelia, Layla, Eva Marie, Ellen, Sarah and Megan for coming top place in their class. A big congratulations to B1 for winning best class overall with 239 merits. Keep up the good work everyone!
The Science of Snow
Ms Floods science class braved the snow to investigate the latent heat of fusion!
Christmas Doors
The Third Year classes are competing in a Christmas door decoration competition. There are some very creative designs on display.
Gifts to the Crib
We held our annual Gifts to the Crib today. Students brought in various gifts to be donated such as gift cards, care packages, dog food/treats, dog toys, food hampers and children’s toys and clothes. After a beautiful ceremony students were asked to bring their gifts up to their house tree. Thank you to the Charity Committee and Le Chéile Council for organising. Gift donations can still be made until Friday morning!
