✟ 6th Class Retreat ✟
On Wednesday the 22nd of February 2017, 6th class went on a retreat to Mount St Anne's Retreat
Center. We learned about different religions, we did meditation, giving compliments to our classmates.
The first room we went to we did meditation. The meditation really relaxed you . The room was very quiet and still . We nearly fell asleep.
The next room we went to, we watched a video about random acts of kindness. Some of the random acts of kindness were , giving free food to homeless people, a doctor was giving free help and medication to people after Hurricane Sandy.
The last room was the compliment room. In that room everyone was given a sheet of paper and a pen.
Then we wrote compliments that people said about us. Some of them were, kind, funny ,banter, good at sport, good friend, nice hair.
At the end we had a ceremony. We said lots of prayers some in Irish, we sang some songs , some people volunteered to sing by themselves.
We had a really good day out. We got to go outside for a little bit .The instructors were really nice and they taught us a lot about respect and being a good person.
