Aladdin comes to our school!

Last Wednesday, we had a theater group come to our school.  They put on a performance of Aladdin.  We all really enjoyed the play and some children even took part.











Hurling

Every Tuesday, we take part in hurling training.  We are learning lots of new skills and having great fun.  Gerry is our hurling trainer and he is very good.  One day, we hope to be as good as him!





















Bird watching

On Monday, Tom the birdwatcher came to our class.  He did lots of activities with us.  We made origami birds, drew birds and learnt about birds from around the world and in Ireland.  We had a very enjoyable afternoon and hope that when the weather gets better, Tom will be able to bring us out bird watching.

Science week 2011

We did lots of experiments during science week.  We did colour mixing and made colour spinners. We investigated if wax is water proof.  We made our own soap and even made a volcano!  We were very lucky to have a "Bubble Magic" show visit our school.






































We are taking part in the Junior Lego League this year.  We can't wait to start on our own projects and inventions.  This years challenge is called "Snack Attack!"  Check out the website to see what we will be doing:
