Library Visit
12 March 2024
First class enjoyed visiting the library for Irish Astronomy Week and Seachtain na Gaeilge. We had loads of fun with the space jigsaw and looking at the astronomy books. We browsed through fabulous Gaeilge books too. The librarian read us two stories.

Well done to the 6th class boys who drew and painted some lovely sunflower art.
Australia
01 March 2024
First class have enjoyed learning about Australia. We think it is really cool that when it is daytime in Ireland, it is nighttime in Australia. Australian animals are very interesting. Koala's are our favourite. We saw the the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Sydney Opera House, Uluru, The Twelve Apostles and Great Barrier Reef on Google Maps. We enjoyed making our fantastic coral reef art.
Our 5 Senses.....focus on taste
28 February 2024
Both 2nd Classes were looking at the 5 senses today. We focused in on our taste buds. 6 very brave boys volunteered to be tasters while blindfolded. They had to smell, touch and then taste salt and vinegar hula hoops, sour dummy sweets, a lemon, chocolate and blue cheese on a cracker (which went down better than I thought!). We really enjoyed this lesson! 👅👀✋🏼👂🏼👃🏼
Grow in Love
27 February 2024
Our Grow in Love theme this month is Mass. Thank you to Fr Diarmuid for welcoming us to the church, taking the time to explain the important statues, vestments and altar gifts. We spoke about Lent and we loved hearing about the history of the church in Oranmore too.
