5th Class adventure to Fighting Words

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.

Planting Progress

The children are really pleased with their planting journey so far.  They are excited  to check on the progress of their plants every morning.  Great work!

Maths Group

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!

Budding Gardeners

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!

Baking Skills!!

A group of 4th and 5th class children showing off their baking skills this week.  They made yummy red velvet cupcakes!  Lovely teamwork!184186 187

5th Class visit the LAB Art Gallery

On Thursday the 9th of November, 5th class got the chance to visit the LAB art gallery close to our school.

Katy showed us around some of the art work and we all did a great job of sharing our opinions and thoughts on the wonderful work on show.

Frightful Fun in 5th class for Halloween

Fifth class have been having lots of fun getting ready for the Halloween celebrations. They have been working hard on art projects and decorating their classroom.

On Tuesday the 24th of October, some of the pupils’ families came in to help out with our Halloween crafts. We made wonderful masks with their help and the help of Emma.

Student Council

The new school year always brings lots of new activities and fresh energy with it. One of the many exciting activities happening now in Rutland National School is the Student Council. Two members in all classes from 1st to 6th were chosen. Every class listened to all the students who put themselves forward to be on the Student Council. They then voted on the children who they believed would best represent them. Many children had brilliant ideas about how we can keep making Rutland National School a fantastic place for learning and growing.

Well done to all children who spoke in front of their classes, for all the fantastic ideas shared and to the elected Student Council members!

Today, the Student Council made their badges, which they will wear on their uniform so all children can identify these great role models. The Student Council will next meet on the 25th October. Before that, each representative must record all the ideas and issues their class has that they would like the Student Council to know about and to act on if they can.

Emma and I are really looking forward to the next meeting where we can hear the ideas that are buzzing around all of the classrooms!
