Welcome! This is our sixth class blog entry for February.
Our class has been getting up to a lot of activities. Here are some things we
have been doing.
HANDWRITING
COMPETITION
Our class
had a writing competition to see who would be entered into the An Post writing
competition. We drafted and redrafted a diary entry about the 1916 rising. Our
class winner was Naomi Adeniji .
DRAWING COMPETITION
Also to commemorate
the 1916 rising, all of the senior classes
took part in the school drawing competition. Each class got to choose between a
selection of buildings in Dublin to draw and colour such as the GPO, Bolands Flour Mills, Kilmainham Jail and lots more. The
winners were chosen by the teachers. The winner in 6th class was
Excelle Okeke.
The Ceilí
Mór
In February
we started learning a dance for the Ceilí Mór held in March every year- a dance
held in the school hall to raise money for Scoil Mhuire. Our dance is called
the Bridge of Athlone. Learning it was a lot of fun. Come back next month to
see how we got on!
Cross country
On the last
week of February there was another cross
country race . Eight girls went to
Corcaigh Park to represent our class-
Shaamina, Weronika, Excelle , Aoife, Natasha,
Kate, Abbie and Naomi. They did great and we earned a lot of points for
our school.
CHINA PROJECTS
In our class
we did in groups of two projects on China. Each pair’s project was fantastic,
filled with information on China. Fun fact for all of you : 2016 is the year of
the monkey .
We are happy
that it is finally Spring and the sun is finally out ! We can now enjoy our break time out in the sun ! We had a
great February. We will keep you updated on our next blog post.
