We had great fun in 2nd class for Maths week. We created our own board games in pairs, brainstorming ideas first and then designing the game. There was lots of excitement in the room when we got to explain our games and play them!

6th class played Maths games with us in the hall and this was a real hit with 2nd class. We really enjoyed learning new games and interacting with 6th class.

We also enjoyed maths4fun this week with board games and interactive games and writing in our Maths journals. 

We also got to try out our new game room for golden time. We had funny puppet shows, drawing stations and kinetic sand stations. Everyone had great fun and really enjoyed it!

Our girls’ GAA team had a brilliant day out at the recent blitz, showcasing not only their skills on the pitch but also their outstanding teamwork and sportsmanship.

The team played incredibly well in all their matches, with every player giving it their all and supporting one another throughout the day. It was fantastic to see such determination, enthusiasm, and positivity from start to finish.

Well done to all the girls involved, you did yourselves and the school proud! A big thank you also to the organisers and supporters who helped make the day so enjoyable.

We’re already looking forward to the next one!

Last Friday, 4th Class took on the big job of hosting and presenting the Senior Assembly and they did a fantastic job! The pupils showed off their public speaking skills as they stood up in front of a large crowd of students and teachers. They spoke clearly, confidently, and kept everyone engaged from start to finish.

 

Well done to all of 4th Class for their hard work and teamwork in preparing for the assembly. You should all be very proud of yourselves!

This week, 4th Class have been learning all about gravity and the centre of gravity. We had great fun putting our learning into action by making our own simple seesaws to test how gravity works and how balance affects movement. The class did a fantastic job experimenting and predicting what would happen. We have some very impressive scientists in the making!

We learned all about the colour wheel in September. We explored the warm and cool colours of the colour wheel through paint mixing first. We then created contrasting autumnal leaves against a sky and finally we used chalk pastels to create an abstract piece with a mixture of curved and straight lines. Have a look at the pictures below!

First few weeks in Junior infants

We've had a very busy few weeks in Junior infants. We have been having a great time making new friends and learning all about the school rules. Junior infants have been working so hard completing patterns in maths as well as learning all about Autumn. Last week we went on our beep beep walk where we learned all about how to cross the road safely. The walk was a big success and thoroughly enjoyed by all!
