Annual School Picnic!
Last Friday we celebrated the school’s birthday with a wonderful picnic!
All the classes enjoyed their lunch al fresco and junior infants even invited some fuzzy friends to their picnic!
There were lots of activities and running around.
Thank you to Mr. Gibney and particularly the wonderful 6th class for running the show all day.
4th class pastel drawings!
4th Class used the outdoors to inspire their wonderful pastel drawings last week.
They searched around the school grounds to find a flower that inspired them by its colour, texture and shape.
They took a snapshot on an iPad and in class, used pastels to draw the flower focusing on the colour to create depth to their picture. Lovely work 4th class!
