Student of the Week- Scott T

This week Scott Thompson had one of the best weeks ever in school. He always makes us laugh and is a great boy in the class but this week Scort really put his mind down to his writing. Check out his writing, it is so neat and a huge improvement! Scott showed great pride in his writing and even asked could he stay in at break to finish his writing!! Keep up the amazing work Scott! You really deserve student of the week this week!

Paddy's Day Fun!

On Friday 14th of March we had lots of fun marching in the parade. The whole school were there, with the junior school, the girls school and the little boys and girls from the crèche. It was great fun!! We made hats for the parade and got our faces painted by Miss Sally and Miss Stafford!!

Book Review

Shaurya challenged himself to read Matilda by Roald Dahl. When he was finished he did a brilliant book review!! His least favourite character was Miss Trunchball!!! Well done Shaurya

Gymnastics

Last month for PE we stayed out of the cold and did our PE in the hall!! We were practicing gymnastics for PE. We learned how to pencil roll, sausage roll, forward roll, backward roll and our favourite the Indiana Jones roll. Second and Third had a gymnastics display at the end to show off our new skills!

Symmetry

Anton gave us a fantastic definition for Symmetry today. 

A symmetrical shape is a shape that can be cut through the middle to show two or more pieces that can be folded on top of each other or  to show a mirror image or matching shape. Anton also pointed out that a square has lots of lines of symmetry.

Friday 13th!!

Today 2nd class had another great day! They have been working so hard and behaving so well we decided it was time for a trip! First we went to the GPO, where we posted our Santa letters and met Stephen who brought us on a tour of the museum. Next we walked across town to the Mansion House where The Lord Mayor lives. Here we saw a live crib, with a donkey, a goat and sheep in it. After that we went to St. Stephens Green and had some fun in the playground. By the time we got backed to school all of the boys were really tired!! Lots of walking and lots of fun!! Can't wait for our next trip to the panto next week!
