World Book Day 2021
We had a lot of fun today for world book day. We made book marks, explored books and retold them in our own words by looking at the pictures. We took a trip to our school library where a lovely story was read from a giant book by teacher. We got to sit on comfy cushions and then had a good root and picked out some books to look at ourselves afterwards. It was a very calming and nice afternoon in Junior and Senior Infants.

Christmas Aistear
We are having so much fun this month in Aistear. So far we have an elf work station where we wrap lots of presents and put them underneath our class Christmas tree. Teacher sprinkled some magic dust to turn us into awesome Christmas wrappers! Our next station is our Christmas letter station. We have wrote and decorated our Christmas letters and posted them into our magical class post box. In our third station we have cut out Christmas characters and stuck them to lollipop sticks to create puppets, we had great fun creating a Christmas show using these. We have had the best time!

Decorating our Classroom Christmas Tree
Our Christmas Post Office for Aistear
The girls have been practicing making cards and posting them for Christmas. We made our very own post office in the Aistear room and the girls were very busy practicing by taking it in turns to work in the post office and also being the customers posting all their letters and cards for Christmas. The girls then went to visit the post office on the Curragh Camp with Ms Farrouj to post their all their Christmas cards and they even helped out by purchasing stamps to bring back for the school office.
Shared Reading with the 6th Class girls
Many thanks to all the 6th class girls who are doing buddy reading with our class. As you can see, it is a lovely part of each week.

Old toys and new toys
We had a very interesting time learning about old toys versus new toys. After a discussion we used the old toys to make fun and colourful art patterns.

Our Tea Party in the staff room
While the rest of the school went on their school tour Ms Farrouj brought us to the staff room for a lovely tea party! We all dressed up in our favourite costumes and ate yummy biscuits. It was so much fun.

Our wormery
The junior and senior class girls have made their very own wormery in the classroom. They went out digging for worms and then put them all in their new soil. It is important for the worms to be kept in darkness in the classroom and the girls are feeding them vegetable peelings to help them along. The girls are having lots of fun minding their wormery and making sure the worms are safe and cosy!
Mighty Mouth Certificates
The HSE recently visited the girls to teach them all about the importance of taking care of your teeth. The girls have been so good at brushing their teeth each day that they have all been awarded with Mighty mouth certificates. Well done Junior & senior infants. Keep on brushing those sparkling teeth!!

Fun Learning Basketball
The Junior and Senior Infants had lots of fun practising their basketball in the Hall with Ms Farrouj. I am sure Ms Tuomey and Ms Walsh have their eye on quite a few future members for our school team!
