We Are All Born Free


We read 'We Are All Born Free' in school this week. 



We learned about some of the rights that all humans should enjoy. You can watch a video showing some of these here! 




Remember, everyone has rights so everyone also has the responsibility to protect other people's rights!


Na Dathanna!


D'fhoglaim muid ár ndathanna inniu. Déanaigí athbhreithniú orthu anseo! 
We learned our colours in Irish today. Revise them here!

Tricky Word Song for Our New Word - 'they'

Shopping Lists!


We were learning all about shopping lists today. Here are the rules we came up with for writing a shopping list!

Underwater Treasure


We were practising our counting up to 10 today - being really careful to only say one number word for each object. 

We had great fun playing the Underwater Treasure game. You can play it again by clicking on the picture!




What are Children's Rights?


We watched a really nice video today that taught us all about what children's rights are. We learned that children have a right to go to the doctor, to clean water, to go to school, to healthy food, to believe what we wish and most importantly, the right to PLAY!

Whoever You Are by Mem Fox


The senior infants read this lovely book in class today - Whoever You Are by Mem Fox. It taught us about how despite our differences, all the children around the world share lots of similarities. Here's a video of someone else reading the story.
