Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!!
Saint Patrick’s Day Badges
Senior infants made beautiful Saint Patrick’s Day Badges this week.
Saint Patrick’s Day Sorting
Some of the Senior Infant boys decided to sort some of our math game materials into green, white and orange/yellow for Saint Patrick’s Day! They made a little leprechaun village using the objects.
Library Bus
The Library bus came to school. The children were so excited to go out and visit the library bus. Senior Infants listened to a lovely story called ‘When I say Ooh You say Aah’. Mary the librarian read this to the class and they then chose a book of their own to bring home and read.
Carnivorous plants
Look at this lovely pitcher plant. It is a carnivorous plant and it was enjoying a yummy fly for its lunch that day!
Love is in the Air
Senior Infants made some gorgeous Valentines art pieces. It’s Amazing what you can make with just one sheet of painted paper. Have a look and see…
Love you to pieces cards
Love Heart Pictures!
And finally individual art work using the left over paper. Well done Senior infants!
Yes We Can
Senior Infants have been thinking about all the Amazing things they can do and learning that everyone has different talents. Look at our fabulous ‘I Can’ Books!
Aistear– The Polar Regions
Aistear is in full swing in the infant classrooms this term. We have been learning all about the Arctic and the Antarctic.
The children have been explorers and scientists in the Research center. They have been constructing life sized igloos and making igloos from paper. In our STEM area the children have been figuring out how to build an igloo using sugar cubes.
Happy New Year from Senior Infants!

Out of this World!
As part of our Space theme this month, Senior Infants built Space Rockets from Recycled materials.
Halloween
Senior Infants had lots of fun at Halloween. We had a dress up day, with lots of spooky costumes. We played eye spy with our Frozen hands and went ‘fishing for ‘eyeballs” in some worms!!
