September:

September has been full of creativity, teamwork and fun as the children settled into the new school year. They created vibrant Romero Britto-inspired self-portraits, carefully designed Celtic manuscript foil initials, and worked brilliantly together on spaghetti tower challenges that put their teamwork and problem-solving to the test.

The class has also enjoyed keeping active through gymnastics, multisport sessions and plenty of lively games. What a fantastic start to the term!

October

October has been a super busy and exciting month in our classroom! We learnt lots and tried, plenty of new things enjoying every step along the way. We began the month with Anti-Bullying Week recognising the importance of demonstrating kindness to all, highlighting the negative impacts that bullying can cause and identifying the important steps to take in order to prevent and report bullying. The month then continued with autumn inspired art, gymnastics and our very own class assembly on the topic of Harvest. Maths week followed shortly afterwards and this offered a great opportunity to extend and challenge ourselves in our learning. We also played some fun maths games and took on the important roles as maths helpers for the junior infants as they completed their maths week activities. At the end of the week, we all really enjoyed a special trip to Zipit Forest Adventures in Tibradden wood where we climbed, balanced and zip-lined our way across a range of challenging high-wire courses. This was definitely one of the highlights of the year so far! Halloween then came along quickly which meant cool costumes and a Halloween party with a special treat of making our own personalised DIY pizzas. What a month and we can't wait to see what November holds!
