Pancake Tuesday In Junior Infants.

World Book Day 2015

We Are Authors!!

We participated in the Write A Book Competition ran by the Blackrock Education Centre. We each had one page each  to complete.We were transformed into superheroes and went on our very own adventure!

Amazing Magnets.

We experimented with a variety of materials to see what was attracted to a magnet. We were amazed at how many things are made from metal and how strong magnets can be!

Grandparents Day 2015

We love all of our grandparents. They are very special to us. They tell us stories, bring us to school, bring us to mass, give us treats, give us presents and love us. A little boy in our class told us that his Granny told him all about how she used a wooden spoon when his daddy was misbehaving!!  We drew beautiful pictures of our grandparents to celebrate our love for them!

Christmas Time

Our very first class trip took place on Friday the 12th of December. We went to see Sammy Sausages star in Cinderella, in the Tivoli Theatre. We had an amazing time singing and dancing. Lots of children fell asleep on the way home!!

We wore our own clothes on the last day of term. We had a very special visitor on that day too! Can you see who it was? Ho Ho Ho!!!

Halloween Celebrations

Halloween Art; Spooky Ghosts and Pumpkins

Autumn is here. One of the little girls in our class found lots of things on her nature walk and then Junior Infants sorted them into sets. We also made Harry the Hedgehog. We also learned a poem about hedgehogs.

I'm Harry the Hedgehog

Make and Do

We love to construct things in our class. Check out some of our individual and group creations!!

We are making lots of new friends this year. We  love playing games with each other.

We Can Read!

We love reading in Junior Infants.

We learned to read today.
We read words like sit, sat, pat, pan, pin, it and in. This is how we did it!!

Maths Corner

Maths is one of our favourite subjects in school.

We are now learning all about the seasons of the year. Sing along with us!

We all now know the days of the week. Would you like to hear our Days of the Week Song? Don't forget to clap with the music!
