Yet
another busy month in the Infant Classroom!
Aistear
During
February, we were learning about "The Gardener/ Garden Centre" and
"The Farmer/ Spring Animals". We learned about the different parts of
the plant and we now can name some well known flowers which can be seen in any
Irish Garden. We had great fun doing our flower paintings using some different
vegetables. We integrated some famous childhood stories for this month’s theme
“The Enormous Turnip” and “Farmer Duck”. The children thoroughly enjoyed acting
out these stories in their home corner over the weeks. The children are working
very creatively in their groups and they produced a fantastic
Farm Scene display in our classroom. The children created some lovely
small word farms which showed their understanding of the topic.
3-D
Robots
The
children had great fun making their 3-D Robots last Friday using recyclable
materials which they brought in from home. This was linking in with our Maths
topic for the week.
Martial
Arts
The
children have completed their four sessions of martial arts.
They really enjoyed the classes and Paul kept them on their toes each week. It
was a memorable experience for the children.
Young
Achievers
The
Children have started their Young Achievers programme with Bríd Kavannagh.
Colourful story books and interesting activities have won the children’s
interest over the past two Wednesday morning slots! Lots more interesting
activities are to follow according to Bríd.
After
School Science
The
children started their first Science class last week with Christine. It was an
exciting time for the children. They were fascinated with the results of the
acid/ base testing experiments which they carried out.

Good
News Travels Fast
The children were delighted to hear the good news of
the arrival of Mrs. Doyle’s new baby Henry. We wish them both the very best and
the children made a lovely decorative card especially for Mrs. Doyle.
