Some photos of our lovely garden in bloom!
2nd Class
look at how our garden grows!
Summer is definitely here! Our garden is blooming thanks to Ms.Coleman and Ms.Conway and all the children who have helped them with planting, weeding and decorating the garden. Not only is the garden a lovely place to be, we grow our own herbs, some fruit and vegetables.
Picnic in the Park
All the children who had full attendance for the year got a lovely treat last week as they went for a picnic in Fitzgerald's Park.
Health Promoting School Committee
A big thank you to the children who made up the Health Promoting School Committee this year. They did an excellent job reminding their classes about Mindfulness Monday, Wake up and Shake up and Music in the Yard.
Attendance Assembly
The final assembly for the year was held recently. Ms. O Neill presented certificates to the girls on the Health Promoting school committee. The girls from 6th class then told the children how important it is to pick up litter from the beach when they visit during the summer. Ms. Murray then presented certificates to the girls and boys who have made a big improvement in their attendance this school year. The children who missed no school day this year were also presented with certificates. These children get an extra special treat of a picnic. Ms. Byran's class then ended the assembly by singing the song "A Million Dreams"
Baking Fun
2nd class had a very busy morning as they went baking. They had great fun making some soda bread. The girls had to use their maths skills to measure out the correct amounts of ingredients for the bread. Afterwards they all got to taste some of the baking.
Sponsored Walk
The children went on a sponsored walk last Friday. The girls from 2nd to 6th walked to Fitzgerald's Park. The children got a chance to play in the playground and have a well deserved break before walking back. The children from Junior Infants to 1st class went on a walk of the Shandon area before having a break in St. Anne's park for some fun and games.
Trip to Shandon
2nd class enjoyed a trip to Shandon Sweet shop today. They met Danny who makes the sweets. He told them how the sweets are made and the machines to cut and shape the machines. 2nd class then continued onto St. Anne's church Shandon. There they got to ring the bells before going up a lot of steps and looking over the balcony to see the city. The children all had a great time.
Health Promoting School- Wake Up and Shake Up
The children as really enjoying the warm weather and the sunny mornings as they take part in Wake Up and Shake Up. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday mornings the children get the chance to go out to the yard and practice their skipping before school starts.
