We had so much fun during our Science lesson today. During our investigation, we examined pumpkins, watched a video about their growth and life cycle and conducted lots of hands on exploration. Finally, because we are scientists, we recorded our findings!
Oíche Shamhna has definitely been our favourite Gaeilge theme so far this year. The boys love our activities and we are amazed at the progress they have made. Maith sibh a bhuachaillí!
Our Drama theme this week was based on the book, ‘Creepy Pair of Underwear!’ The boys had lots of fun making freeze frames and taking turns to role play being Jasper Rabbit and the Creepy Underwear. We are having lots of fun reading Halloween stories in Prefab 9.
We are really enjoying learning new skills in GAA with coach Fergal. 
We are really enjoying our phonics programme in First Class. It is amazing to watch the boys’ confidence grow each day!
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!
We love Monday music lessons with Bergie. We have been learning about the composer Saint-Saens who composed Carnival of The Animals. Each piece of music is named after a different animal and we listened carefully and tried to figure out which animal we could hear in the music. Bergie then let us freestyle with the percussion instruments.
Garda Ciara visited our classroom to talk to us about staying safe at Halloween.
