Our School Tour – Red Mountain Farm

We had a fabulous time on our school tour at Red Mountain Farm. We saw lots of different animals, rode around the farm on the Blue Express, fed the goats, and had some time in the farmyard playground. The boys had an amazing day!

Our first trip: Redmountain Farm

Fitter Younger Marathon

Ashtown Castle

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

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.

Whole School Dance-athon!

To end our fabulous sports day we had a whole school dance-athon! We had so much fun!

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!
