Juniors and Seniors started learning their letters and sounds in September. They reallt enjoyed reading  a story called  "We are  going on a Bear Hunt" Their  favourite part was when they got home safe and sound. The Infants love Treat Friday every week. Infants love going to athletics with Matthew every Thursday for 30minutes. Infants were doing dot art based on the story "The Dot" by Peter H. Reynolds, they designed lots of beautiful dots.

1st and 2nd  class were studying about Autumn creatures like Hedgehogs and Squirrels! They also learned about hibernation and deciduous trees in SESE. They also did some wonderful artwork on Autumn. Cubism was another area they learned about in art, they learned about Pablo Picasso and and made crazy cubist creations. In religion they learned about Jesus and his 12 Apostles. Along with their class rules they created a beautiful friendship display. They covered a lot of topics in SESE including learning about schools ;long ago and all about their skeletons and muscles. qst and 2nd found all of this very interesting. In P.E they did soccer and did strength and conditioning with Matthew.

During September 3rd and 4th class have been 'ag obair go dian' with their Irish verbs, learning them off perfectly. It was all about place value in maths! Ms O’Callaghan read "A Bad Case of Stripes" to the class which they really enjoyed. 3rd and 4th  drew fabulous self-portraits, they were awesome. They had a fantastic game of dodge ball. They looked like they were pros. In SESE they learned all about habitats! It was super cool! They also became historians for a day and learnt about the ancient celts!!!!!
