Seomra 4 are back!

The boys and girls in Seomra 4 returned to the classroom after nine weeks of remote learning. The children had a busy, but enjoyable week settling back into the school routine. We spent the first day familiarising ourselves with our classroom routines and rules, and of course catching up with our friends. 

We discussed remote learning, and all that the children had learned over the nine weeks. We have proudly displayed the amazing project work that the children completed. Check out some of the work in the pictures below. 

On Monday and Tuesday pupils wore green to Celebrate our Patron Saint, St. Patrick. We learned about his early life and his time spent spreading the word of God. We made St. Patrick's day badges and also created some beautiful Celtic designs as well. 

We are learning all about Farm Safety and had lots of discussions about how to keep safe on a farm, we took part in a Safe schools webinar about farm safety and the children really enjoyed the topic. Over the coming weeks we will continue to discuss Farm safety in more detail. 

 In religion we learned all about Holy week and Easter, the pupils completed group projects which we have on display in our classroom. On Thursday we carried out an Easter Egg hunt which was great fun and a nice treat.

The pupils, parents, guardians and staff in Scoil Mhuire made a huge effort for Daffodil Day on Friday and raised an amazing €805.70 for a wonderful cause. We are very proud of everyone and very thankful for the generosity shown. We decorated our classroom with daffodils and drew some beautiful daffodils to mark the day. Pupils also dressed in yellow or orange clothes. It was a bright and colourful day! 

We ended the term with some hot chocolate, rice krispie buns, and a movie. We had such a nice day that we forgot to take any photographs!! 

All that is left to say is a big well done to all pupils on their first two weeks back at school. I wish you all a happy and safe Easter and I look forward to seeing you on the 12th of April.

Happy Easter! 

 

Happy Easter ó Sheomra 2

Happy Easter to all the boys, girls, teachers and parents in Seomra a dó. We have had an eggs-tra exciting few days this week to end our term. The children hopped out the classroom door with smiles on their faces and eggs under their bonnets with excitement. 

We created the cutest chicks this week using orange and yellow crepe paper, learned all about Holy Week and completed an Easter Kahoot! quiz as part of our homework to celebrate Easter. We wore yellow and orange on Friday to mark 'Daffodil Day' and really got into the Easter and spring colours. Ms Malone and Ms Martin are so proud of the generosity displayed and donations given by their class groups - Maith sibh! Have a look at all our sp'egg'tacular work below.        

                                                 

Ms Malone and all the children celebrated the end of term with an Easter Party as a result of the children collecting all ten eggs in their Easter basket. It was a brilliant morning full of chicks, hot chocolate and plenty of yummy eggs. We had a cracking time! 😅

That's all from us yolks! Ms Malone and Fiona hope everyone in Seomra 2 has an EGGCELLENT EASTER!

It has been an egg-cellent final few days of term in Seomra a hAon. The boys and girls have engaged in several Easter themed activities to mark this special celebration.

The children learned about the story of Holy Week, designed excellent Easter chicks using coloured crepe paper, wrote creative Easter stories and completed an Easter online Kahoot! quiz to name but a few of the enjoyable class exercises. Check out the egg-traordinary artists at work and the finished masterpieces below. Ms Martin thinks they are all ‘crackin!’

On the last day of term, there was two events held. Firstly it was Daffodil Day, a day to support the Irish Cancer Society. All the children wore yellow or orange to mark this special day. Ms Malone and Ms Martin are so proud of the generosity displayed and donations given by their class groups. Maith sibh! 

Secondly Ms Martin hosted an Easter themed Hot Chocolate Party as a result of the children collecting all ten eggs in their Easter basket. It was a brilliant morning full of sweet treats, hot chocolate and chuckles. 

Ms Martin, Fiona and the children had a 'hopping' time at this well deserved celebration.
