Leaf Prints

We have been learning about Autumn. We brought lots of leaves to school and did some leaf printing. We had leaves from the Horse Chestnut Tree, the Sycamore, the Oak, the Beech and the Ash.




We used many different colour paints for the printing - red, orange, brown, green, yellow.
We had great fun doing the prints and we were very proud of the results.












Connecting with Other Classes

We love to connect with other classes in Ireland and around the world. We Tweet as @MrsBellsClass. We tell about what's happening in school and we learn what other classes are getting up to!

We also love to Skype. On Thursday September 13th, we had a very interesting Skype session with Class 2HSB, Willerby Carr Lane Primary School,  near Hull in East Yorkshire in the North of England.  We asked each other questions about our schools. We were amazed to hear that they are in school everyday until 3.30pm! We sang a song for them and Daniel, Aaron and Séamus showed them their hurleys and told them about the game. They had never heard of hurling.




We will keep up contact with our new friends. They have already sent us an email and we have replied to them. We hope to skype with them again soon!


Welcome to Senior Infants

We are now in Senior Infants and have moved to Room 2. We have a lovely big classroom and we can see The Sugar Loaf Mountain from our classroom window. We have 33 boys and girls in our class. We have been very busy during the past two weeks and we have taken lots of photographs for you.

These photographs were taken on September 3rd, our first day in Senior Infants.








These photographs show some of the things we made. We are really very good at making things!
