Junior Room- June

Aistear

 Look at the little village we created in Art this month. We learned about Estate Agents and the work they do. We made “House for Sale” posters and we sold a lot of houses!!                                       

                                             

School Tour

The children were over the moon when I announced we would be visiting Sea Life in Bray on our school tour. It linked in really well with our Under the Sea topic from last month and the children were very eager to see the fish and other sea animals they learned about.

We went on our school tour on Tuesday the 18^th of June. We left the school around 9.30am and we went straight to the aquarium in Bray. We met our tour guide and she escorted us around the Aquarium and informed the children about the different sea animals. The children put her to the test as they had some very interesting questions for her!!!!

    

Once the tour was over we got back on the bus and we went to our next stop- Zoom in Charlesland!! The children thoroughly enjoyed the time they had at Zoom. We had some sweaty and tired heads returning onto the bus at 1.15pm!!

We returned to school at 1.50pm and each child received a certificate and a fancy pen from Sea Life as a token from their tour.

     

Teddy Bear Picnic

Monday- 24^th June the Middle and Senior Room went on their school tours. Since we had the school to ourselves we decided to have our lunch in style. Each child brought in their favourite teddy bear. We made some Rice Crispy buns in school and once they were cooled we headed off to our picnic spot. We had a great picnic and we even got to bring home an extra Rice Crispy bun!!

  

 

School Sports

Tuesday- 25^th June we had a School Sports Afternoon.  We were all really excited before the event. There were 4 teams for the day. Each child got the teams’ colour painted on their faces. The parents came to watch and they even got the chance to run in a race!! The races on the day were:

1. Egg and Spoon                                                                              2. Fast Walking

3. Hula Hoop                                                                                       4.Sidewards Skipping

5. Bean Bag

Then the children got an opportunity to participate in two fun team work games. This was a first and exciting experience for many of the children!! Have a look.
