Rosie's Cart Visits our School

All the children in our school saw this wonderful show in our Assembly Hall just before Christmas. It was performed by Cups and Crowns Theatre Company.

The show was about a lady who helped a man who did not spend time with his sister anymore. He always did things on time and never changed his life. Rosie helped him understand that it was important to spend time with your family and to forgive people. Before we saw the show we did a workshop with Jay and had great fun playing games.

We hope we will see another show next year.

Bakers in the Junior Room

We had a wonderful morning on the day Mrs Forde said we were going to bake in the Cookery Kitchen.

We all made sure to wash our hands before handling food.

We made Croissants and Pain Au Chocolat. We ate them all at breaktime and everyone really enjoyed this food that is eaten in France everyday. Tres bien!

Christmas in Mrs Forde's Room

We love Christmas in Mrs Forde's room. The Junior Infants, Senior Infants and 1s Class are not allowed to mention the 'S' word until the 1st of December. What is the 'S' word? 'Santa'!!!!!

We all had great fun getting ready for our Christmas Nativity Play. Mrs Forde, Moya and Ms Nolan helped us get our costumes ready. We also borrowed some costumes from Ms Nolan's classroom.

We performed the Play for our families on Thursday 20th December.Everyone remembered all their lines. We felt very proud.
