On a rainy Tuesday, 5th class took a short walk to the Fighting Words offices near our school. We met a lady called Aifric who asked us lots of questions and helped us plan out our story.

Then we went into groups and made our own stories by ourselves.

There was a ‘cranky’ editor who had to give approval for our story and decide if he would print it or not.

We were lucky and he decided it was so good he would print it! We all left with or very own copy. I would like to be an author one day.

Senior Infants were working very hard today! They are gaining confidence using a number line to add and subtract.  They love improving their counting skills by playing fun games!

Some of the children have started to grow their own vegetables. They are learning how to sow seeds and take care of their plants by watering them daily and keeping them in a safe place.  So far, we have planted spinach, cress, tomatoes and peas.  Watch this space!
