July Adventures in Féileacáin!
Horse Riding in Brookfield Stables.
And just like that we reached the end of our July Provision Summer Camp.
We had the most brilliant advenures and finished our brilliant trips with
horse riding in Brookfield Stables.
We made up-cycled fish to embellish our Hooray for Fish display.
We used old CD's. It was superb fun.
Our seedlings are coming along slowly and steadily and Ferney the Class Plant is being
kept watered...he is growing to the ceiling.
Clonfert Pet Farm Trip.
Handa's Surprise Story and Play.
We made fruits from the story and re-created the story using
lollipop animals and our playdough created fruits.
We also made real ice lollipops using mango, pineaple and
passionfuit smoothie juice... some of the fruits from the
story. They were quite delicious!!
Mellowes Adventure Day.
Happy and delighted to be exploring so many fun tasks and activities together.
We are full of business down in the Aistear Room daily and even busier with
cutting and sticking, making puzzles, art and playdough Summer activities.
Here are a few highlights of our week so far.
It has been a very busy few days in Féileacáin as the children settled into July activities.
We had a most exciting and engaging visit from Mrs. Tuite and her dog Finn. Many
of the children got the wonderful opportunity to walk and pet Finn. Poor Mrs. Halligan
didn't get a look in... Finn Dog was much too busy being pampered by all the children.
A BIG thank you to Mrs. Tuite and Finn!!
The adventures just kept coming with a trip to The Trim Play and Adventure Centre,
followed by a bus detour to see and feed the Donkeys. Theresa made sure the donkeys
got some nice carrots! Thank you Theresa.
We just loved the Play Centre and we had the most fun. Staff and pupils alike certainly
made good use of the slide!!
In our groups we are making lots of art and having wonderful fun in the Aistear Room.
We explored magnets and made a very clever magnet fishing rod game. More fishy
adventures saw us make a 3D painted Aquarium display, based on our book
of the week, Hooray for Fish!!
This week we also enjoyed fun activities and cycling in the PE Hall and a little baking.
We planted seeds, a task inspired by the beautiful illustrations in the book,
The Tiny Seed by Eric Carle. We are watching and minding our seeds closely.
We can't wait to show you all the pictures from our next adventures. We are taking some
cool trips and outings this week with our friends from Misneach. Stay tuned!!
School tour !!!
Another great day for us was our trip to Causey Farm for our school tour with 1st class. We had smiles on our faces all days as we explored all the cool things in Causey. We loved the animals, train ride and the bubbles!!
Sports Day 2023
Another great day was Sports Day. We had a teddy bears picnic, an ice-cream truck came to our school and we were outside for the day taking part in lots of different sporting activities.
FUN IN THE SUN
We had a great month in school in June and we had lots of fun actitivies with our friends in misneach. We were playing with bubbles, had a teddy bears party and had our own sports day!
We had a very special visit where we got to see the rugby trophies! The children loved this and were so excited when they got to hold them!! We also have been working really hard this year on lining up when the bell goes and we reaped the rewards last week when we won a trophy for all our hard work!!

School Aquarium
We have been so lucky this month, we got a brand new aquarium and the children have been fasicnated with all the fish in the tank. We are feeling very grateful for this lovely treat!!
Summer Art
The children have done some gorgeous Summer art over the last number of weeks. Since we got our fish aquarium in the school we have been exploring the theme 'Under the Sea'.
April 2023
April Assembly
The boys and girls were very lucky as we got a special performance from the choir for the April performance. We also had inspire awards from each class. Kyle won the award from Féileacáin and we are all very proud of him. He is a super kind friend to all around him and he loves to share and help others. Congratulations to all of Féileacáin for doing so well participating in our whole school assemblies!
Easter Art
Take a look at our lovely Easter Art. We created lots of different art pieces for Easter.
EASTER EGG HUNT
The children were very excited when they had an Easter Egg hunt around the school. They each had pictures they had to find around the school. It caused great excitement in the class.
March 2023
WORLD BOOK DAY
The children had the best time celebrating World Book Day by dressing up in our favourite character costumes. We read lots of our favourite classical stories like The Gruffalo and A Snail and a Whale. We also went to the Assembly with the rest of the school and showed off our lovely costumes for the whole school. Sophia and Kyle won best dressed!!
LÁ GLAS
We all dressed up in green for Lá Glas and we were very proud to see three of our classmates integrate with 1st class to perform the Haka as Gaeilge for the whole school. We loved getting to watch all the performances too!!
New life in Spring
We had the most perfect visit from a new baby lamb to our school. We have been very busy learning all about Spring and new life being born during Spring time so the children were so happy when they got to see the new baby lamb. Thank you very much to all who helped make this happen!
STEM projects
We are full of curiosity in Féileacáin and the children got very creative when they were given a paper cup, a straw, an elastic band and a plastic glove. They enjoyed testing out what they could make from this. We also filled up a sandwich bag with water, closed it over and tested out how many pencils we could fit in before it would start releasing water.
February 2023
Spring nature walk
Our theme has been all about Spring and recognising the signs of Spring. We went on a Spring walk around the school and found lots of different signs of Spring!!
Pancake Tuesday
We teamed up with our friends in Misneach and had a pancake party. We flipped pancakes and decorated them with lovely treats.
New bike in Féileacáin
We are super grateful for the parents who donated a lovely new bike to our class!! The enjoyment it has brought to our class has been just wonderful. The children have been busy learning how to use it!
February Art
We love doing Art in our class and this month we have been working on our Valentine's Day Art and also we worked very hard to create our St. Brigid's Day cloak.
