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!
Table Tennis In 2nd & 3rd Class!
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!
Capacity Is Overflowing In 1st Class!
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!
5th Class Experience Dublin Port!
5th Class visited the exhibition ‘Solidarity: The Dockers of Dublin Port’ last week. The class met the historian, Daryl, the historian on site, and Paddy, who worked on the docks for 48 years, shared many stories. It was a lovely piece of Dublin history that showed ordinary people doing hard physical work but also resilience and humour. It was a wonderful experience. They also loved the goodie bags!
Many thanks to The Little Museum of Dublin and Dublin Port Company.
Guess Who As Gaeilge!
Last week, 4th Class played ‘Guess Who’ as Gaeilge! It was a super way to get a handle on some irregular past tense verbs and have some fun at the same time!
