Ashtown Castle
June 13, 2023
We had an amazing day in Ashtown Castle. We learned about the history of the castle, saw a model of the entire Phoenix Park in the visitor centre, and learned about the different flowers and animals in the park. We ended the day with a picnic and some time in the playground.
Playground Teamwork!

We love playing in the yard together! St John Bosco fosters creative minds and team players! We are also very grateful for tall teachers that help us finish our gigantic masterpieces!!
Bloom
June 2, 2023
We went to the Bloom Festival in the Phoenix Park. We saw a sheep being sheared and learned about Daisy the Cow (who produces up to 28 litres of milk everyday!). We explored the fruit and vegetable patches and even got to try some herbs like mint and thyme. We ended the day with a talk with Niamh about the food pyramid and snacked on some fresh apples and carrot slices.

The boys showed great coordination and team work today during our Relay Race activity. They listened to the coach, waiting their turn and worked great together! They finished the activity with a few laps of the yard. Well done boys!
Friday STEM
May 31, 2023
Our Friday challenge was to design and build a vehicle that would float. We had great fun testing our vehicles. The boys really impressed us with their engineering skills and their ability to problem solve. They discovered that weight distribution and surface area could have an impact on whether their vehicles survived our testing! We definitely have some future scientists in Room 1.
