The wet weather didn’t dampen our enthusiasm for a picnic! We had lovely treats in our classroom instead and played some Teddy Bear games like Hunt the Teddy and Pass the Teddy. 🧸

We cooked delicious food in the colours of our flag: broccoli, peas, cauliflower, rice, carrots and corn. We made a tasty green smoothie too.☘️

We dressed up as our favourite characters and shared our favourite books. We loved listening to all the different stories! 📚

We had great fun tossing pretend pancakes and making crêpes. They passed Fr. Finan’s taste test. We loved the pancakes that we got from Edel and the Amber Committee too. Thank you!

We worked hard to create Connacht style St. Brigid’s crosses today- we had to concentrate very hard when we were winding the wool. We visited the Church to see the amazing St. Brigid crosses there – ours was so small in comparison!

We’ve continued our making and baking in January and made delicious treats like white chocolate crispie buns and fabulous fifteens. Our unexpected favourite was making omelettes in the last week of January. We didn’t even think we liked eggs but we devoured our creations! 😋

We really enjoyed learning about the northern lights and were amazed when we realised how much our sensory lights looked like the aurora borealis!

We had a great time on our snowy day in school. We built a super snowman and collected buckets of snow to put in our water tray. Brrrr!
