Happy Easter from Senior Infants!

Senior Infants got a lovely surprise when Travelling Ted returned from Elsie's house! Not only was he dressed as the Easter Bunny but he came with lots of treats for all the boys and girls!!

Our Easter eggs almost look good enough to eat!!

Senior Infants really enjoyed doing their mini group projects as part of our work on the 1916 Rising. Along with our Ireland flags they also created a lovely window display! 

February in Senior Infants!

This month we learned all about the farm; work on the farm,  buildings, animals, etc. We also explored life on the farm in the past and compared it to that of today. Here is our Farmyard display!

Here are just a few photos of Travelling Ted's adventures with Senior Infants so far...

Happy New Year from Senior Infants!

This year got off to a busy start with the arrival of Travelling Ted! Ted will be accompanying the boys and girls from Senior Infants home over the coming months. Already he has been very busy and getting up to lots of mischief!

This month we explored the work of the artist Piet Mondrian and the children then created their own Mondrian pieces!

One of our topics in Maths this month was time. We each had our own clocks and we really enjoyed working at group activities while learning how to tell the time! One of our SESE topics was Sound. We had great fun designing and creating our own instruments and even played them in our very own band!! Here are some of our displays.

December

This month one of our topics was Winter and the Antarctic. We learned about the Emperor Penguin and watched lots of videos about them, including an Emperor chick hatching from an egg! We then created a fact file and painted our very own penguins. We also painted a Winter snow globe scene which made a lovely window display.

We were also very busy this month preparing for our Christmas play Whoops-a-Daisy Angel and we finally got to perform it for our families on !8th December!
