So that I can learn some more skills.
To be stronger in my learning and to connect with others and to do some more teamwork stuff.
To listen to other’s and what they say.
I will step up and help or I will stay with my team and stay calm and listen to the teachers and what they say.

If I listen and talk to teachers and parents at camp.
I will help if needed I will listen I will be positive at all time’sIi will help people that need some help in learning or even if they are getting talk to manly and not in a positive way that you should be talking.

We will see kindness and being postive at all time and make the write chose’s in the team that someone is doing.

Who was Saint Patrick

St. Patrick of Ireland is one of the world's most popular saints. He was born in Roman Britain and when he was fourteen or so, he was captured by Irish pirates during a raiding party and taken to Ireland as a slave to herd and tend sheep. At the time, Ireland was a land of Druids and pagans but Patrick turned to God and wrote his memoir, The Confession. In The Confession, he wrote:
"The love of God and his fear grew in me more and more, as did the faith, and my soul was rosed, so that, in a single day, I have said as many as a hundred prayers and in the night, nearly the same. I prayed in the woods and on the mountain, even before dawn. I felt no hurt from the snow or ice or rain."
Patrick's captivity lasted until he was twenty when he escaped after having a dream from God in which he was told to leave Ireland by going to the coast. There he found some sailors who took him back to Britain and was reunited with his family.
