We are back to school with our friends, playing and having fun! 

Múinteoir Síofra came to play us some music on the harp. We loved it so much she let us have a go too! Thank you Múinteoir Síofra. 

We went to Ballina playground. We really enjoyed the big swing and climbing on the monkey bars. It was great fun!

We also went to the shop with Múinteoir Mark's class. 

We celebrated a birthday this month. We ate some cake and sang Happy Birthday. 

We love going to Liskennett Equine Centre to see all the horses. We also enjoy their outdoor trampoline. 

We have really improved when we go horse-riding. Someone in our class can even ride by himself. We love to meet Elvis, May, Angel and all the horses at Liskennett. 

Mtr Máire played some music on her fiddle and we loved it!

We had so much fun on our school tour to Kidstown. The volcano slide was our favourite. 

Sports Day went down a treat! We loved the egg and spoon race and the pizza box challenge. 

Arts and Craft: We made a castle out of an old box. We loved painting it and drawing pictures to decorate it. 

When the sun is out we like to go outside to play with our water station. 

Indie, an Irish Guide Dog came to visit our class. We loved to see her coming and she loved to get a belly rub! 

Birthday Celebrations 
​Happy birthday Conor & Daisy! 

Story of the Month
The Hungry Caterpillar 

Group Gymnastics 
All involved for some group gymnastics. Thanks to RK Sports for coming every Wednesday to help us practice our gymnastics. 

Exploring Sounds:

Our theme for November was all about exploring sounds. As part of our music and SESE, we decided to explore the different sounds we could make using food and our trays. We then made our own shakers and explored the different sounds they made!

We went on a tour of our school to see what sounds we could hear all around us too - people were talking, music was playing, phones were ringing!

Life Skills:

As part of our SPHE and Life Skills work, we have been learning about recipes and how to follow them. We planned out what we would need then walked to the shop to buy our ingredients. After we had all our ingredients, we made some tasty hot chocolate and even put some marshmallows on top. It was a yummy treat after a stormy week!

Student Council
Our student council member's come to play with us every lunchtime. We love to go on the scooters, draw using chalk and play hide and seek. It is great fun when the student council come to visit. 

Halloween Art
We made some spooky skeletons using cotton wool buds and glue. This was great fun!
​
We also made Halloween potions. We mixed different colours together and we may have added a magical spell too! 

Halloween Dress-Up 
We dressed up as different characters for our Halloween Dress-up day. There was a Superhero, some Princesses, pirates and even a Greatest Showman Ring Leader. We hardly recognised Múinteoir Mark as a pirate and Múinteoir Ciara as a witch. We had so much fun! Thank you to Príomhóide and the Parent's Association for running this day. 

Halloween Disco
We were so lucky to have a Halloween disco outside with all of our friends. We danced to music and it was so much fun. 

Halloween Baking 
We decorated some scary Halloween biscuits. We chose our colours and designed each biscuit. We got to eat them afterwards and they were delicious. 

Whole School Zoom Assembly 
We watched and listened to our school zoom assembly. We spotted some familiar faces on the zoom. 

Hurling Achievements 
Well done to Conor in our class who showed us his hurling medal he received. We are really proud of you, keep up the good work! 

Birthday Celebrations​
We celebrated a birthday this month. We loved playing with the birthday balloons and wearing our birthday hats. 

Art Attack
We mixed loads of different colours to make new colours. We loved mixing red and yellow to make orange and yellow and blue to make green.

Múinteoir Mark and Múinteoir Ciara's class teamed up to go on our GAA inclusion walk. We walked around Ballina and spotted some of our favourite places to visit. Thanks to Ballina GAA club for organising this initiative.
