Last month, Junior infants started learning about weight in maths. ⚖️
They worked in pairs and explored the classroom for items that were heavy and light. They engaged in lots of maths talk.
Nice work Junior Infants!
1st Class recently created and designed their very own “Dream Homes” using as many different recyclable materials as possible. They showcased their houses to lots of classes and teachers around the school.
Their wonderful creativity, imagination and enthusiasm was an inspiration to us all.
Well done 1st Class!!
Last month, five groups in 5th class entered Dragons’ Den to present their business ideas! The pitches were super engaging and very professional. After serious consideration, and praise for each group, the Dragons chose the “Create Ya Cupcake” idea with “BLFT lemonade” as a possible partner business.
Excellent work 5th Class!
Keep an eye out for cupcakes coming your way next term everyone!

6th Class have completed an 8 week “Say yes to languages” programme! They were learning Irish Sign Language (ISL). Thank you to our tutor Cathal Duffy who was very impressed with the children, their engagement and eagerness to learn. Well done 6th Class!
We had some amazing costumes in 4th Class for World Book Day last week!
Fantastic Mr Fox, Falkor from the Never Ending Story, Swamp Thing and even the full cast of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory attended school on the day.
Such fun!
Last week, 3rd class worked really hard on their posters for the Water For Peace Green Schools competition.
They created some very powerful messages with beautifully detailed pictures about looking after the environment.
Lovely work 3rd Class!
Senior Infants had a fantastic outing to the natural history museum, aka the Dead Zoo. It was a great day of fun and learning. The class investigated animals and their habitats and explored the Wonder Cabinet and saw different predators and prey!
2nd and 3rd Class were introduced to table tennis in the classroom as the wet weather brought PE class indoors! Our handy little desk nets make this possible. The children enjoy it so much, a few have started table tennis outside school!
Whoever said wet days can’t be fun!
1st Class has been busy exploring Capacity in Maths.
The class used non standard units such as spoons and cups to measure the capacity of different containers.
They had great fun estimating first and then measuring how much water the various containers could hold!
Looks like lots of fun 1st Class!
