Yesterday it was St Joseph’s Day.
We started the day with Mass and then we sorted ourselves into houses to make our special shared lunch.
Silk made
the Minestrone soup by chopping up celery, onions, zucchini, potatoes and carrots. Then we added tins of tomatoes, cannelinni beans, pasta and beef stock.
MacKillop made the bread in a breadmaker and then kneaded it to make bread rolls.
Joseph made Sfinge cakes. This was made with flour, butter, water, sugar and eggs. It made a batter that we cooked in the oven and then topped it with riccota cheese mixed with cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate chips and icing sugar
When all the cooking was done and we were ready to eat, we all dressed up like
Joseph or Mary or like people did in those days. Bishop Denis came to have
lunch with us. We sang our St Joseph’s school prayer and the Bishop said grace.
Then we sat down at a long table to eat our lunch. It was amazing. The soup was
so yummy. "I liked to dip my bread in the soup" said Chad. "I even had two pieces of cake!" - Joshua
Happy Feast Day St Joseph!!
