Our Fairy Gardens

The Blue Star Programme

We have been learning all about the European Union. Today we had a referendum!! We voted on whether school holidays should be shorter and whether children should be required to play outside!

Spring Lambs

Thank you Helen and Farmer Stan for bringing  a lamb to visit us in school.
We loved learning all about the lamb and the daily life of a farmer.

Numeracy & Literacy Stations

We are learning and having fun when we complete our Numeracy and Literacy stations. We love playing games together and getting the opportunity to read and spell words on the iPad. 

Africa

We loved learning all about Africa. We researched African animals such as the lion and giraffe. We played with the Savannah and created African masks during Aistear. We also tasted a variety of African food such as pineapple, mango, avocado, cous cous and spiced chicken during our African Feast.

Congratulations to Junior Infant Theo who was awarded the Hero in the Hallway award!

Winners of this award are nominated by their classmates or teacher for showing Hero qualities in our school, such as kindness, inclusiveness, supportiveness and leadership.

Well done Theo!


Creative Classrooms

Gabi came to visit us and spoke about all of the different ways we can express our creativity. Gabi introduced us to her sheep Séamus which she made herself from Irish wool. We are looking forward to trying out some creative projects such as baking, gardening and wool craft.

Gymnastics

We are enjoying gymnastics classes with Coolmine Gymnastics Club in January and February. We are learning lots of new skills every week! Check out some photos of us in action!

Advent






​Advent is a time to wait
It’s not quite time to celebrate!

Until the Advent time is done.

Time for joy and time cheer!

We are really enjoying our drama lessons with Suzanne. We are learning new poems and performing our own versions of fairytales such as The Three Bears and Jack and the Beanstalk.


Story Time
​
Ms.O’Connor brought us up to the library to read us a story. We loved spending time in our school library and really enjoyed listening to Ms. O’Connor’s story.
