Science Week

For Science Week, the Junior Room looked at the topic of Winter. We found out lots of facts about the season of winter. We carried out an experiment to find out what happens to different liquids when we freeze them. We also began making snowmen out of clay.

Wasp's Nest


A big thank you to Tommy O'Dwyer for bringing in a wasp's nest for us to see. We enjoyed dissecting it and learning all about wasps. To find out more about wasps follow the link: http://www.coolkidfacts.com/wasp-facts-for-kids/





Maths


In maths the infants have been using bears to make patterns. First they followed the patterns on their cards. Then they made their own patterns using varying colours and sizes. Everyone enjoyed it.


Credit Union Art Competition

We enjoyed entering the Credit Union Art Competition. This year's theme was 'Dreams are made of this...' We used our imagination to create lots of beautiful painting.
