Energy Workshop

 

We had a really exciting visit from the SEAI (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland) this February. We are hoping to get our Energy Green Flag this year and this was our whole school day of action. Every class learned so much about energy. We learned how energy comes from the sun. We learned about different types of energy such as Stored Energy, Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy. We saw solar power and wind power in action. We learned why it is so important to save energy. It was an action packed day for all the school which we really enjoyed.

Happy Mother's Day

Second, Third and Fourth Class were busy sewing for Mother's Day. They created some lovely cushions.

Happy Saint Brigid's Day

Nature News

2nd, 3rd and 4th class were delighted to have a visit from Geoff Hunt. He is a nature and wildlife specialist and we learned so much in one afternoon. He thought us about three common garden birds - The Robin, The Blackbird and the Blue tit. We listened to their song, learned about what they like to eat and practised drawing them. Then we had a chance to look for birds out the window using a telescope. It was a really interesting afternoon.

Film Makers

4th and 5th class were invited to attend a local screening of the Fís film projects at Siamsa Tíre Tralee with Ms Browne. It was a really enjoyable morning watching our films displayed on a big screen and enjoying creations from other schools. We were delighted to receive an award on the day which will take pride of place at school. Well Done!

The Green School Committee is working hard towards renewing our green flag this year.They have been very busy conducting an environmental review of the school as well as making posters and reminders to help us all remember to switch of lights and appliances when they are not in use. Please remember to do your part and save electricity at home as well. Thank you.

Here is a photograph of our first green flag and our Green Schools Committee.

5th and 6th class update - January 2016

Between building our own characters for art, Christmas plays, and World War 1 projects, we've certainly been busy!

A few of these pictures are of the class building a model Titanic, while three are pictures of them presenting World War 1 projects, performing our class play (The Grinch), and also making bird feeders. There are also pictures of the girl's creations from recycled materials.
