Both third classes went to Dún Laoghaire for their annual summer tour.  We had an absolutely fantastic day and we were blessed with sunny weather.  We discovered so many sea creatures like anemones, crabs, lugworms and much more when rock-pooling.  We even came across an escaped budgie on the way down to the beach!  We also had an amazing time kayaking and swimming in the harbour.  The perfect day to reward a great year for both classes!

Third class have been presenting amazing projects on European countries.  Everyone made loads of effort to make their project interesting and memorable.  Some dressed up in typical clothing and others brought in money and memorabilia.   We had a great time tasting different breads and bakes and even some delicious pizza and meatballs!  Yum yum!

Mrs.Duffy’s class had a visit from Morpheus the rabbit recently.   He was so soft and cuddly, I think we all want a pet rabbit now!

We also had a visit from the tortoise with no name!!!  She is in her 70s and still hasn’t been named.  Shelley was a popular choice today!

Third class enjoyed using modelling clay to make Three Little Pigs.   What a colourful lot of piggies!   They look fab when they’re painted and glossed.

3rd Class have been learning all about the rainforest, its animals and its plants.  They completed some art and project work that really impressed the Junior Infants.  They were even lucky enough to be invited by the Infants to tell them all about the animals that live in the rainforest.  Junior Infants will be going to the zoo soon and will already have loads of knowledge thanks to the amazing researching and presenting from third class.  Well done!
