Welcome to 3rd class!
Múinteoir Maurette and Múinteoir Sharon

Hello from Ms. Sharon's 3rd Class

Term 1, September 2022.  In Art the children shared their interests and hobbies in the 'All About Me' profile pictures, it was a lovely activity to get reacquainted with each other and get to know some of our new pupils after the summer holidays.  We also constructed some cool Cú Chulainn shields using old cardboard. In Science, the class really enjoyed exploring lots of materials that are used for building homes in Ireland.  In Literacy the class also did amazing planning, drafting, writing, editing and publishing summer recount stories.  As part of our Learn Together curriculum we learned about Rosh Hashanah and got to sample some delicious bread, apples and honey.

Hello from 2nd Class 

Check out all of the fun we had on our school tour in Turvey Nature Reserve! We played games, went hunting for dry wood to build a fire and even toasted marshmallows over the fire! A big thanks to Mouse for giving us a brilliant school tour!
We have had a busy start to 2022! We have been working hard on our weekly Guided Reading and First Steps explanation writing. We even made bird feeders with our nature expert Mouse. Keep an eye on the gallery below for more updates!
We are almost at the end of our first full term. We finish on Wednesday 22nd at 11: 50. 

Important Notices

We have some displays of our art work down below. Go check them out 

School Fun

Writing

We have been focusing on explanation writing and the children in both classes have been planning, drafting and publishing their explanation texts. Our main focus was the life cycle of the butterfly. Check some of them out below!

Check out what we have been up to since the Winter Break!

We learned about friction in Science and tested different materials to create ramps. We have been working hard on learning all about money and have had lots of opportunities to create our own shop in 2nd class! We also had lots of fun creating bird feeders with Mouse!

Hello from 2nd Class. We are nearly at the Christmas Holidays. We have had a very exciting month so far especially with Ronan and Buddy, our Elves on the Shelf. Mouse has been in visiting us and we have been learning lots about Irish Wildlife. We even had the chance to hold a baby hedgehog. We have been learning sign language as part of our Christmas performance and we cannot wait to show you all.

Check out some of the fun activities we have been doing since the Midterm Break
