SCIENCE WEEK.....LAUNCHING ROCKETS!!!

The Junior Room learnt about Rockets today for Science week. They got to make their very own rocket and launch it themselves. They learnt who invented the first rocket and how many years ago it was introduced. The children tested their rocket both inside and outside. The older children assessed the best angle of the straw to blow their rocket to give maximum height. 

RELIGION: REMEMBER FOR NOVEMBER

We write down our loved ones names on a piece of a paper who have passed away. We will pray and remember our loved ones for the month of November. We will pick out daily from the the Remembrance box and pray for the deceased.  

CHRISTMAS COLOURING COMPEITION

PROJECTS/ACTIVITIES BEFORE HALLOWEEN

Oxford Reading Tree (O.R.T)

Every Monday morning we have shared O.R.T. and many thanks to the volunteers who offer their time and services. This is a wonderful experience for all the children in Scoil San Eoin and would not be possible without the parental involvement.  

Maths Trail

The children got an opportunity to do Maths trails outside during Maths week. We were very fortunate with the weather and Maths week would not have been a great success with out the Parental volunteers. Many thanks to all who helped out.  

Gymnastics

For Six weeks the children had Gymnastics classes. The children have been building on their new movements from last year. At the end of the programme the infants received a wrist band showing they had passed Level 1. Both First and Second class equally received a wrist band showing that they had passed Level 2.

Geography

What is Soil made out of? The children got to experiment by mixing water with soil and mixing the jar up. After an hour we recorded our findings. We learnt that soil is the layer of loose material on the surface of Earth. Without soil, we would not be able to grow plants.

Halloween Dress Up!

We had lots of fun playing in our Halloween costumes!
