On Thursday , May 24th , our senior room went to a vocal work shop in Visual theatre in Carlow. They sang Bruno Maher’s ‘ Count on Me’ in front of a packed theatre. After wards, Michael Ó Shuilleabháin taught a vocal play shop. Michael is a famous rap artist who has worked along side Will smith . The pupils really enjoyed learning about the different sounds their voices and bodies could make.
Mrs . Binions and the junior room have created a lovely May themed sacred space .
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.
We had a fantastic workshop hosted by Bricks 4 Kidz today in school. They visited our Junior and Senior room. Pupils learned all about engineering , science and technology. Check out some of the great work our pupils did today .
