Senior Infants and Hurling!

Senior Infants have been enjoying Hurling during School. We are so lucky that we get to enjoy the lovely sun while learning new skills. A big thank you to Susanne, Mary and GPO Ian who have been in helping us out. We are having a blast!!

Printing during art using tinfoil and magic water!

Take a look at our gorgeous flower art. We have been busy learning all about printing. We made this cool art using tinfoil, markers and magic water to print on to our flower art.

May is the Month of Mary

Senior Infants have designed a beautiful May altar in memory of our Lady Mary. They created a bunch of flowers from each group and designed some gorgeous stained glass windows.

Under the Sea

The children have been learning all about the theme of 'Water' this month. They have been working together to create this wonderful Art display made up of their 'CD fish' and their gorgeous Jelly Fish!! 

A special visit to Senior Infants

We had a very special visit from Mrs. Prickles in Senior Infants. The children absolutely loved this visit and had so much fun feeding and minding Mrs. Prickles. A huge thank you to the brilliant Pauline for organising this!!

Well-Being Week 2021!!

Senior Infants are big fans on mindfulness, grounding and meditation. They worked so hard all week to focus and relax throughout the day. Sometimes we just need to take a moment to ourselves and focus on some mindfulness. 

Pauline told the very important story of Áine Óg and what she did when she was feeling worried, sad or anxious. The children learned the important ways to cope when feeling sad. Look for an adult, speak to an adult and listen to the advice from the adult. 

We had a lot of movement breaks and exercises throughout the week. Movement and exercise are so important for our well-being!!

Happy faces enjoying some chocolate during chocolate meditation.

The children created some lovely calm jars to help them focus when they are doing their meditation at home. What a super fun week we had. Well-being is so important, especially during these tough times we find ourselves in. 

Spring has Sprung!!

The Senior Infants have been learning all about The Garden Centre in Aistear for the month of March. They created this beautiful art display with their lovely daffodils. We have also been talking about the parts of a flower and how important these parts are for a flower. We looked at and labelled some Daffodils in class.

Take a look at our fantastic St. Patrick's Day Art!
