2nd class were working so hard and behaving so well we decided to take them on their first of many trips as Larriers!! They had a fun day in the Natural History Museum,where they saw lots of animals and even drew pictures of some of the animals. After that they had lunch in St. Stephens Green and they managed to squeeze in some time to play in the lovely playground there!!

Last month the boys of second class got a bit of a scare when someone played a Halloween prank!! Although looking at the picture these BIG BRAVE MEN weren't scared at all....... They were just minding Breda! (Wink wink)

Seasons and Months of the Year

2nd class have been working very hard in maths this week, learning the seasons and months of the year. The boys are now experts at calendars! This will be handy when they are wondering how many days there are left until Christmas!

Schools in the Past

We have been learning all about schools in the past and this week Miss Staffords Nana came to tell us what it was like when she went to school. The boys in the class had LOTS of questions to ask! It was a really nice afternoon and everyone got some cake to help celebrate Miss Staffords birthday! Well done rang a do! 

Croke Park by Taylor

Yesterday morning on the 4th of November in Croke Park, St Laurence O' Tooles C.B.S. played an exciting and wonderful final against a very strong St. Josephs Coolock team. the Larriers were the champions after a heart stopping game.
First the Larriers walked to Croke Park at 9 O' clock and we followed them. When we got to Croke Park we took our seats. While we were waiting for them to come out it was very cold. Finally we saw them in the corner of the pitch that they came down through before the match started. Then the ref blew the whistle, then they tipped off and the Larriers nearly scored. When the keeper  kicked the ball out of his hands, Dillon caught the ball and he scored a goal. He was happy when he scored, but then he kicked it out of his hands and the other team scored. Finally when the ref blew the whistle the Larriers had won be four points!
After that they went back to school and they let us see the cup. Then they all went to Mc Donalds after the match.
