This term, the pupils in Mr. Shevlin’s class will be helping us with our léitheoireacht Gaeilge. We are buddying up to practice our reading and to learn from the older children. It’s a really nice way to use the Gaeilge we have been learning. 
Second Class
Yesterday was our annual beach clean up day so all the children from 2nd-6th class headed off to Salterstown beach. We were well equipped with litter pickers, gloves, bibs and rubbish bags, all given to us by An Taisce. It was a gorgeous sunny day and we really enjoyed the beautiful surroundings. It is great to see the children taking such good care of our environment.
We got the chance to explore the world of K’NEX in our maths this week. They are brilliant for building lots of different types of structures. We looked at building 3D shapes in this lesson. Here we are at work!
To celebrate St. Patrick’s Day we made some funny leprechaun faces. Hopefully they will lead us to their pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!
As today was World Book Day, we celebrated by dressing up as characters from our favourite books. We also had some extra DEAR time and a special online story time.
For the last few weeks we’ve had Stephen from Louth GAA coming in to teach us the skills of Gaelic football. We have lots of fun doing the drills and playing a game at the end.
