Recorder playing

We had a wonderful time in Ms. McGuire's class along with Ms. McLoughlin's class

 playing ALL the recorder songs we have learned since the beginning of the year.

We are SOOOOO good now.

Robert has helped us lots too!

Visit from the Connacht Rugby Team and Sam's Dad Tim Allnutt

On Tuesday 26th April, we were very excited and honoured that Sam's Dad organised for some of the Connacht Rugby squad to come and talk to us in our classroom. We met Niyi Adeolokun, Finlay Bealham, Jack Carty, Robbie Henshaw and the captain John Muldoon, who told us his favourite subject at school was Irish! They showed us some video clips of their best matches and told us what it is like to be a professional sports person.
Tim gave each of us a Connacht flag and he also gave us a rugby ball signed by the whole team.

UP CONNACHT!

 

Monday 12th Oct. 2015
This week 10th to 18th Oct. 2015 is Maths week and we had lots of fun today at school. We played a Maths game on the crackingmaths website called Diggy Doggy. We had to follow directions to lead the dog to the correct location to dig for his bone. It was fun!
We also learned simple coding using the Kodables app on our iPad. It was a little tricky at first but we soon got the idea of it, and we helped each other to learn.

Junior Spider Awards 2014

We were thrilled to have Scoil Chaitríona Junior's blog website

nominated for a Best School Blog Award in the 2014 Eircom Junior Spider Awards.

These awards were held in the Google Foundry in Dublin yesterday.

While we did not win our category, we had a wonderful day and the students who accompanied the two teachers really did us proud!

 Well done to them!

Pat the Hat

We walked to Ballybane Library on a lovely sunny morning in October. We listened to a story-teller called Pat the Hat telling stories and doing magic tricks. He even showed us how to draw a pig using the letters e, E, w, W and M! See our photos on the page above.

We had our annual Halloween Walk around Renmore on the 25th of October. Everyone wore great costumes to school and we had great fun!
