We made play dough using flour, salt, water, oil and food colouring. First we mixed the dry ingredients together, then we mixed the wet ingredients together. Finally, we mixed both the dry and wet ingredients together in a bowl until the dough was ready for us to play with.

The boys were very excited to decorate their very own gingerbread men. They were even more excited to eat the tasty treats!

We had a special visitor to the school this week which caused great excitement. Santa was delighted to see everyone in their Christmas jumpers and gave us the best news ever. Everyone in Prefab 8 is on theNice List!

Christmas activities are in full swing here in Prefab 8 and the boys are loving all of the festive fun. Here is a sample of the great work they have been doing in December.

Well done to all our Artists of the Week this month.

Ben created some seriously spooky witch legs, using strips of card.

Look at Oisín’s Garda!

Johnney did an amazing job creating a scary scarecrow with oil pastels.

Devin painted a very autumnal scene, portraying the leaves changing colour for Autumn.

We learned that the primary colours are red, yellow and blue. When we mixed the primary colours together, we made secondary colours.

Each morning in Prefab 8 we have been enjoying lots of different Halloween themed activities. We have been making spooky skeletons with straws, counting ghosts and ghouls, making crazy pumpkins and crafting some cool witches from 2d shapes. Prefab 8 is seriously spooky!
