We were so excited to go to Tayto Park on our school tour this year! We enjoyed a tour to see all of the animals in Tayto park first, we had lunch and then took on some of the rollercoasters and rides. We had an absolute blast!!

Have a look at our colourful and creative hot air balloons! We created these flowers using chalk pastels. First we drew the outline of the flower in pencil, then we outlined it using a black oil pastel to help keep our colours separated and finally we used a variety of colours to blend our petals. From far away they look dark but up close you can see all of the colours and details. We also enjoyed creating these sea turtle pictures - We used oil pastels and paint for our backgr...

The boys and girls in 4th class did an amazing job in creating their paper sculptures. Have a look at how they got on.

We have really enjoyed learning about the different species of animals and plants in Ireland. We got a chance to look closely at some of the insects that are local to us as well as learn a bit more about the plants and animals we are familiar with in the local area. We also got the chance to plant our own tree on the school grounds with Paddy Madden.

We earned golden time for great work this week! Here are some of the activities that we enjoy. We would also like to welcome Mila to our class! :)
