The Enormous Crocodile





On Monday, Ms Deery's class invited us down to the hall to show us the mini books they made based on The Enormous Crocodile. Each of us were paired up with a buddy from Ms Deery's class and they read us their version of the Roald Dahl classic and showed us their illustrations. We hope that we will be able to show off our own mini books based on Dirty Bertie very soon!!! Thanks to Ms Deery and all the boys and girls in room 9...we loved listening to your stories!

Try it Tuesday and Fruit on Friday







Here in Room 1, we have been doing our best to bring in different fruit and vegetables as part of the Incredible Edibles programme. A big thank you to all the children who have brought in fruit and vegetables to share with their classmates..we have really enjoyed tasting new things! Last Friday, Ms Ryan brought in watermelon, pineapple, melon and tomatoes for the children to try and the children made a huge effort to taste everything! Please keep up the good work!

Easter egg hunt

On the Friday before Easter, the children from Ms Archer's class, Ms Carroll's class, Ms Ryan's class, Ms Deery's class and our friends from Smarty Pants went on an Easter Egg hunt. We all walked to the playground beside our school to see if the Easter Bunny had left some chocolate treats for us. What a surprise we got! There were easter eggs everywhere! When we had found all the eggs and put them in the big basket, we had time to play on the slides and swings and all the other fun things in the playground. Have a look at our photographs...you will see lots of very happy faces!

GAA




We had great fun training with Colm on Wednesday. Two matches were played at the same time! We were very hot and tired by the end of our GAA time.

Science- Exploring sounds








We have been very busy exploring sounds this week. We worked in pairs to make shakers and then we found objects that made quiet sounds and loud sounds when we put them in our shakers.

Outdoor Classroom





We took advantage of the beautiful sunny weather on Friday to have a look around our new outdoor classroom. It looks super! Ms Ryan even let some of the boys and girls take on the role of 'teacher'! Have a look at some of the boys and girls taking to this role with great ease! They certainly weren't taking any nonsense!
