Senior School Parade!!

We went to see the children in the Senior School march today. We waved the flags that we had made and cheered them on. They looked wonderful in their costumes and they sounded great too. Well done to all the children and the teachers in the Senior School!!

Beautiful clay handprints for Mother's Day

Look at these beautiful clay handprints we made for our mums as a gift for Mother's Day. First we rolled out the clay. Then we pressed down one of our hands to make the handprint. We then made various patterns around our handprints for decoration. When the clay dried fully, we painted our handprints. We think that our mums will really love this gift.

Saint Patrick's Day Art

We made  these 'Jumping O' Jiminy' leprechauns on Friday.

 Look at these flags we made for St. Patrick's Day.

Our Leprechaun pictures!!!

 St. Patrick's Day badges

We coloured these pictures of Saint Patrick after we heard the story of Saint Patrick.

Spring Lambs

We made these cute spring lambs by sticking cotton wool on and colouring the picture in. They turned out great!!!

Pass the beanbag round and round

One of our favourite mucical games to play is called 'pass the beanbag round and round'. We all sit in a circle with a wide range of musical instruments placed in the middle of the circle. While singing our song, we pass a beanbag from one person to the next. When the song ends, whoever has the beanbag in their hands gets to step inside the circle and pick an instrument and make a sound with it.

Saint Francis comes to visit our homes!!!!

We have a teddy of Saint Francis in our class and each day a different person gets to bring him home. The next day, they bring him back and tell the class all the exciting things they did with him. Saint Francis is having a great time and last weekend he even got to go to Westport for the weekend with Luca!!
