A Week in St.Wolstans

This week we did our drama in Religion. Roisin wrote a scene of our drama about War. For our drama we have to describe the effects War has on different people. This is a fun task because we all bring our ideas together to form one drama. Each girl has an assigned role and we are working hard to get a script together so we can rehearse!
              
For History we had to research the story behind why Friday the 13th was considered to be 'unlucky' for some people. In my research I found this:

On Friday the 13, 1306 the King of France had the Knights Templar disbanded and burned at the stake.These Knights were the ones to guard the Holy Grail.

 Christian Origins

The fear of Friday the 13th stems from two separate fears -- the fear of the number 13 and the fear of Fridays. Both fears have deep roots in Western culture, most notably in Christian theology.

Thirteen is significant to Christians because it is the number of people who were present at the Last Supper (Jesus and his 12 apostles). Judas, the apostle w­ho betrayed Jesus, was the 13th member of the party to arrive.

Christians have traditionally been wary of Fridays because Jesus was crucified on a Friday. Additionally, some theologians hold that Adam and Eve ate from the forbidden fruit on a Friday, and that the Great Flood began on a Friday. In the past, many Christians would never begin any new project or trip on a Friday, fearing they would be doomed from the start. 

Are you one of the many people who believe that Friday the 13th is unlucky?..
