Junior Infants and Sixth Class buddied up for some exciting station activities.
In the Sixth Class room, they read together in the library and designed some most impressive buildings using marshmallows and sticks. They also programmed robot mice to run through a tricky maze to get the delicious cheese!
In the Junior Infant room, the children used both English and Gaeilge to converse when visiting the shop and the restaurant.
Ms. Lawrence’s 5th Class were busy at work making collages inspired by the Antarctic landscape.
Dr. Brook’s 4th Class are learning about China and the Chinese New Year.
Over this term coaches from Leinster Rugby have come to give the children of 4th, 5th and 6th classes Tag Rugby coaching sessions.
Look at Senior Infants lovely Winter Art work!
We have been working on life drawing in Mr. Ross’s fifth class. This week we used what we have learned about proportion and shading to complete a picture of half of our face. It proved to be quite the challenge but we are very impressed by the results! Well done!
Second Class had a fantastic trip to Olympian Gymnastics Club in Tallaght. We had loads of fun learning new skills and practised walking on the beam and using the bars.
Sixth Class had the opportunity to attend a free tour and workshop in the newly opened Museum of Literature. The children explored poetry by Seamus Heaney, James Joyce with his love of creating his own words, and other Irish authors. They also got to see the first edition of Ulysses!
