Hallowe’en Dress-up

22/10/2021

0 Comments

 
It was the spookiest day of the year in Greaghrahan N.S. on Friday as instead of our regular pupils, the classrooms were filled with witches, wizards, skeletons and vampires. Everyone had fun scaring their friends and the teachers, before taking part in a Halowe'en parade. Thanks to all the parents for the creativity and effort that went into the costumes and face painting. A very enjoyable day was had by everyone. Have a happy and safe Hallowe'en everyone and we're looking forward to seeing you all again on 1st November.

Autumn Scavenger Hunt

We have been learning about Autumn in the Junior Room and on Thursday the pupils were very excited about going on their Scavenger Hunt on Thursday. The weather was perfect for looking for leaves, nuts and berries. Our checklist of things to look out for kept us all engaged. We really enjoyed getting out of the classroom to learn about the world around us.

The pupils are really enjoying their music classes with Rachael from Sound in Motion Music. Junior and Senior Infants are enjoying percussion activities and are learning to play 1-2 finger chords on the ukulele. The older classes are learning how to play simple songs on the ukulele by reading chord charts, music rhythms and different strum patterns.

Aistear - The Witch's Den

20/10/2021

0 Comments

 
This month's theme was The Witch's Den and was one of the favourite so far. We had great fun Trick or Treating, where we had to say the rhymes and sing the songs we have been learning for Hallowe'en, before we were given a treat. We made spells in the witch's den and had lots of ingredients to put into the brew. There were rats, spiders, bats, bugs and other disgusting stuff. We made decorations to make the classroom look nice. You can see all the fun we had by clicking on the slideshow below.

French Day

15/10/2021

The Senior Students had a fantastic day celebrating French Day on Friday 15th October. This day was to celebrate the topic of France they have been learning about in History and Geography. The students dressed up in the colours of the French Flag or in a French style and they all looked fantastic. The day began with a French style breakfast of croissants, pain au chocolate and orange juice. They used their French speaking skills which they had learned in class to play a range of games using the language and worked as a team to build the famous Eiffel Tower out of spaghetti. The students enjoyed making their own French themed lunch of ham and cheese baguettes and sharing their learning of the topic with their peers.  A great day had by all. Vive le France.

We have been learning all about home this month. The children have been busy preparing meals for the family in the kitchen. Everyone was keen to get involved in the cooking and the meals were delicious. After the family meal, there were lots of dishes to be washed and dried.  The children planned and built houses in the "Construction Area" and furnished the dolls house in the "Small World Area." It was all a lot of fun!
