We have been busy in Room 1. We have been decorating pancakes and cookies, planting seeds, designing and making a fairy garden, building and constructing with our new NEXUS materials, writing, developing our oral language and more!
Today we started Food Dudes. For the next 16 days we will try lots of different fruit and vegetables. Some we will have tasted before and some we will not have tasted before. Each day we will win stickers and rewards.
Today we planted some daffodils in our school garden. We can’t wait to see them grow!!
For the next couple of weeks all classes will be dancing with Derek. Day one was so much fun so we cannot wait for the rest of the classes.
Today the kids had great fun Drumming with Patrick. They got to experience the basic concepts of African drumming through drumming, chanting, singing, body percussion, call and response and storytelling.
For the next couple of weeks we are doing show and tell in our classroom. The kids bring in something that is important to them and tell the class about it.
There was huge excitement today when Santa visited our school in the Fire Brigade. The children were so happy to see him and were delighted when he gave them all a gift!
So far this year the Green Schools have held 4 meetings on raising awareness for Climate Action Week and Clean Air Week. We also did an appliance audit, put up guzzler posters from SEAI and did up the Green schools notice board.
A huge thank you to Cork’s Game Development Officer Pat Spratt who visited our school today and took every class for football. Everyone had so much fun an we look forward to more fun and games with him in December.
A huge thank you to Mr. Fitzgerald and especially Mrs. Cott who organised playground maths games today for all the classes. It was a huge success and the children loved every minute of it.
