Our Elf Harry
Harry the Elf has arrived in First and Second class. He appeared in a glass jar and left a note to say he was in quarantine. Yesterday he made a dramatic escape from quarantine on a tight rope and surprised the class after lunch break! He has already messed up the storeroom but was captured by our art snowmen! He has informed us that he will be reporting back to Santa every day!!

Penpals
We are buzzing about our new penpals! We have linked up with 5th and 6th Class in Kilglass N.S. near Ballinasloe, Co Galway. The children in our school were really excited to receive their first letter this week. We have written back and our letters are currently winging their way to Co Galway! Looking forward to our next letter already!

Look at our animations!
The children loved their Zoom workshop with animator John D Ruddy. He presented key topics such as the 1916 Rising and the War of Independence in an entertaining animated form.
The children then sketched a scene from the Irish Civil War playing close attention to detail such as they type of clothes the soldiers wore (imagine wearing 3 piece suit!), their ammunition.
I think they turned out really well.
Thanks John we really enjoyed your inspirational workshop!
More of his animated history videos are available on https://johndruddy.com/videos-2/

First and Second class had a fantastic Nature Walk. They explored all areas of the school grounds and local vicinity and found so many interesting bugs, leaves and flowers. The children then brought the items back to the class and were able to see the mini beasts up close! Have a look at the beautiful artwork they produced using the items collected on the Nature Walk.
