Pupils in the senior room recently completed a unit of work on birds. We went on a bird watching trip. We collected feathers and printed feathers in Art class. As part of a STEM project, pupils designed and created bird houses.
Our Junior pupils have been enjoying the recent fine weather, making great use of our sandpit and having great fun pretending to be gardeners as part of our Aistear theme- the Garden Centre.
Meanwhile our seeds are doing well . We now have lettuce, turnip, carrot and chive seedlings in our raised bed. There are flowers appearing on our strawberry plants and we have pumpkin, courgette and pea plants started indoors , to be transplanted in the coming weeks.
The junior room have started planting seeds – cress. spinach and peas, thanks to Innocent Smoothies Big grow initiative and we have also received a pack from Agri Aware containing strawberries, pototoes and several seed packets , including turnip, lettuce and chives. Lets hope we get the weather now !
