Ms McNamara's First Class

We had so much fun on Sports Day this year. Everyone took part in the running races, novelty races and all of the other fun stations we had on the day. There was even a bouncy castle! To finish off the day, we had a visit from the ice-cream van. A great day was had by all.

Second class have just completed work on their second big project this year. This project was all about clothing from around the world and some groups even decided to focus on clothing from the past. This time, the children did their own research online and typed their projects on the school laptops. They then printed all their facts and created large display posters to show their work. They are very proud of these projects because they did every bit of the work themselves!

Second class have been working on the Let's Get Active award over the past number of weeks. They all have been making a huge effort to be active during the school day, at home in the evenings and at weekends. Today our class had a visit from Christina Duff who is the schools physical activity coordinator with the Irish Heart Foundation. The class got to give their feedback on the programme and the individual booklets. We really enjoyed the session today and the whole programme gets a thumbs up from us!

Second class are delighted to be back working with hurling coach David Huban again. Everyone loves training and improving their skills.
