​Last Buddy Activity of the Year
5th class & Ms.Doran's 1st class had a great time doing fun activities outside together. They also enjoyed some icepops in the lovely warm weather.

We really enjoying making streetscapes with fabric & fibre.
We also loved acting out scenes from the novel 'Wonder' during Drama time!



​Sports Day!

We had a great day in the sunshine!

Chess Record

How many chess players can play at the same time?  To celebrate Ireland hosting the European Schools Chess Championship for the first time, Ficheall (Primary Teachers promoting chess) wants to celebrate the huge number of Irish primary schools promoting chess for social and cognitive skills.  They are attempting to set a record for the most chess players playing at the one time. We set up some teams and enjoyed playing each other in this skillful game at 10am on Thursday May 30th. Checkmate!

Intercultural Day
​

5th class had the country of Mexico for Intercultural Day. We sang La Bamba in the hall and researched aspects of life and culture in Mexico. We met up with our buddy class, Ms. Doran's 1st, in the afternoon to play some games and find out about their Intercultural Day!

Exploding Volcanoes!

We have been learning about volcanoes in English and Science. We went outside and used bicarbonate of soda (alkali) and vinegar (acid) to make our own volcanoes! Red food dye made our mixture look like lava!

Lá Glas!

                                  Potato Planting
We had a great morning in the garden planting potatoes with John Joe. We learnt about different fertilizers, the best time of year for planting  & the benefits of having worms in the soil. We can't wait to harvest the potatoes later in the school year.


                                 World Book Day!!
We enjoyed buddying up with Ms.Doran's 1st class to show off our costumes, talk about books we enjoy reading & creating world book day posters.

Fun in the Snow!

Chinese New Year

We decorated Chinese lanterns to celebrate the New Year.

St. Brigid's Day

We made crosses for St. Brigid's Day!

An Gorta Mór

We have been learning about the Famine- An Gorta Mór. We wrote speeches for a town hall meeting. Everyone took on a different role- absentee landlord, labourer, tenant or workhouse owner.  In groups we read out our speeches at the meeting- it was a lively one! We discussed our situation and any possible solutions to our problems. We also did mini projects on different aspects of the famine- coffin ships, the causes and effects of the famine and workhouses. 

Santa Visit!
​

Santa came to visit the school on Thursday 7th December. The rain didn't stop us getting our photo taken with him!
