Here are some pictures of some of the fun activities 4th class got up to before the school closures. We learned about Chinese New Year with some parents, used what we learned about shapes to go on a shape hunt around our school and we started drumming! Hopefully it won’t be too long before we get back to school to have more fun together. All the boys and girls are working very hard and using Seesaw really well. I love being able to see the work you’re doing at home so keep it up! I hope everyone is keeping well and safe.

4th class (with some visitors from 1st) had a great Pancake Tuesday 😍 We learned the other name for Pancake/Shrove Tuesday and we also discovered the reasons why pancakes are eaten on the day before Lent begins. We discussed what promises we might make for Lent and of course had some tasty pancakes!!

The boys and girls in 4th class have had a busy start to the year.  We learned about Dublin long ago, noting the similarities and differences to Dublin today. We worked in groups to create excellent projects all about Dublin. We also explored how the breathing system works and made our own set of lungs! Have a look at some of our hard work.

What an incredible event Miss Baileys Class held today for International Womens Day. All the children researched and wrote about different famous women in history. The children also created dinner plates and re created the famous ‘Dinner Party installation art work by feminist artist Judy Chicago. The parents were invited to attend and the children spoke and answered questions about their famous  women. What a celebration!
