Welcome to our class!
Science Week
We had lots of fun with Science Week. Firstly, we designed some bird feeders from items we could find in our classroom. We also had great fun experimenting with different objects to see what would float or sink in water. Finally, we did an experiment to show how raisins dance in fizzy drinks. We learned that raisins sink in the fizzy drink first and then they collect the carbon dioxide bubbles at the bottom and rise to the top :)
September
We have all settled back into school again and we are happy to be back. We have been learning about what makes a good friend and we have been showing great kindness in our class! We have started learning about the season of Autumn and enjoyed making some hedgehogs using pasta and finger-painting colourful autumn leaves on trees :)

Food Dudes
As part of the Food Dudes Campaign, we have been trying different fruit and vegetables. We have tried and tasted bananas, carrots, strawberries, peppers, tomatoes and apples so far! We are enjoying some of the fruit and veg and making great efforts to try them, even if we believe we won't like them! Watch our slideshow below :)
Halloween Activities
We have been enjoying preparing for Halloween in the last few weeks. We have had lots of fun making witches and Frankensteins in Art. We also have been working very hard in school and as a nice surprise, we got to decorate some Halloween cookies with our favourite sweets! What a treat!!
Our trip to Mountmellick Library
On Friday 10th November, we took a trip to Mountmellick Library. As you can see from our pictures, we absolutely loved the different toys and activities and we spent lots of time in their new sensory room. It was so much fun! The librarians were very nice to us too. We look forward to coming back again soon :)
Christmas Treat
Our class have been working so hard this term and as we reached 300 Class Dojo Points since September, we earned ourselves a Class Party! We decorated Gingerbread Men with icing and sweets, which we loved! We played some games and then we got to watch a Christmas Movie with popcorn. Smiles all around!
Sowing Seeds
We have been learning about different plants and what they need to grow. We had a great time sowing some cress seeds and a sunflower seed into our pots. We are taking great care of our plants and watering them every day! Check back soon to see their progress!
