Flying high

by Skye, Sapphire

On the 5th of May it was Ascension day and it was really fun. After

church we went outside to the MUGA and all the classes sat in their

lines. Then the teacher told 2 lucky children that they could hold the

balloons that had the children’s prayers that they wrote and that

they could release them go into the sky.

After they had let the balloons go everyone was looking at them and

it was really cool. “It was fun watching all the balloons go up but

some popped!” said Rohan.
