Music with Bergie

We love Monday music lessons with Bergie. We have been learning about the composer Saint-Saens who composed Carnival of The Animals. Each piece of music is named after a different animal and we listened carefully and tried to figure out which animal we could hear in the music. Bergie then let us freestyle with the percussion instruments.

 

A Special Visitor

Garda Ciara visited our classroom to talk to us about staying safe at Halloween.

Artist Of The Week

 

Well done to our Artists of the Week in September!

Tom used oil pastels to recreate Kandinky’s Concentric Circles.

Hugo created a fabulous self portrait of himself!

Mícheál painted pop art hands, inspired by Andy Warhol’s PopArt style of print.

Morning Activities

September has been super busy. We are having so much fun in our new class. I think it’s fair to say we have really settled into Prefab 8  🙂

GAA Blitz

We were so lucky to be invited to play in a GAA blitz in St Oliver Plunkett’s along with Senior Infants and First Class from our school and the girls’ school. We had a super day! Thank you to Mark and Fergal for helping us to put all of our GAA skills into practice.

Dublin Ladies

A big thank you to the Dublin Ladies who brought the Brendan Martin Cup to our school. We were so lucky to ask them questions about how it felt to be All-Ireland Winners and how excited they were to play in Croke Park!

Morning Activities

In Prefab 8 our favourite time of the day is our morning activities. We love to improve our fine motor skills while having fun! Our new jigsaw puzzles have been a little tricky, so we have been lucky enough to work together as a team to get the job done.
