Marine Pollution

We completed our project with ‘Sea Syenergy’ recently. The class did a super job and learned a lot about the affects of marine pollution. The marine biologists visited us twice. On the second occasion, they showed us a powerpoint on whales and dolphins and will return in a few week with an aquarium for the classroom. Well done 3rd class!

First Day for First Class.

First Day for First Class.

Ms Ann welcomed first class back. They had lots of news, having enjoyed a great summer. They got straight down to work/fun, exploring the properties of tens and making number stories with manipulatives.

Spring has sprung some chicks!

Spring has sprung some chicks!

They are adorable! We all got to rub their soft fluffy down. It was a long wait for ‘Joey’. Chick 2 arrived two days later, at ‘sos beag’. The teachers were more excited than we were, nearly!. Ms Mary calls Chick 2 ‘Goldie’. But Ms Noelle says it’s a democratic decision. We will call her ‘Tiny’. We can’t wait for tomorrow.

Congratulations Sixth.

Congratulations Sixth.

We wish all our children in Sixth all the gifts and strength of the Holy Spirit.

Our Easter Chicks.

Our Easter Chicks.

Mr Liam gave us an incubator filled with eggs. They ‘are due’ this week!!! What will we do, if they hatch during the hols?. We gently turn them every day two times. Ms Noelle thinks the names we are thinking of for our Easter Chicks are perfect. But we haven’t fully decided yet, until EACH ONE hatches…..

Our Book Launch!

Our Book Launch!

We are so proud! It was wonderful that all our parents found the time this morning to celebrate our published books and to have a cup of tea, served by Ms Anne Moore and Ms Noreen. They even got to taste some of our teacher’s banana cake……a recipe which is a secret! This was the first day that we actually got to hold our printed books. It was soooo exciting.

There was great excitement around the school today as we dressed up as characters from our favourite books. Senior pupils read to Junior pupils and shared their favourite Book with them. Fourth class paired with Senior Infants and really enjoyed the experience. Two children engrossed in a book. Mr.Bump even met another Mr.Bump. Can you believe it!!! </
