We have been busy learning all about Irish trees and plants in Science this month. The class explored what happens to trees during autumn, discovered what plants need to survive and investigated how water travels through a plant. The children also became tree detectives, learning to identify different Irish trees by examining their leaves and seeds. Fourth Class then created colourful and informative posters, displaying their knowledge!
Third and Fourth Class participated in a Tag Rugby Blitz in September, which was organised by Connacht Rugby. The children had a fantastic day, playing in small teams against children from local schools. They represented our school brilliantly, showing great teamwork and sportsmanship throughout the day. Most importantly, they had lots of fun and really enjoyed the day out!
