Spring Time- Planting

In February, the senior infants have been learning all about Spring. We have learned a lot of the plants, the Garden and caring for the environment.

This week the students all planted some flowers. We will take care of these in class and watch them grow. The children can then bring them home to plant in their garden.

Art- Salmon of Knowledge 🐟

When learning about the famous landmarks of Ireland, we came across many myths and legends attached to them. The students particularly enjoyed the myth of the Giants Causeway and the Salmon of Knowledge. In art, the students created their own Salmon of Knowledge! 🐟 First, the students painted on bubble wrap and printed it onto the card. This created a water effect. The students then designed the fish and used other materials to add more detail to their work.

Art- Pointillism

For the past for weeks we have been learning about the Supermarket in Aistear. We decided to link this with art and created wonderful pieces of fruit only using cotton buds and paint. All the students did a fantastic job! This was new way to try out painting and art for the students.

Rugby Training 🏉

With Rugby fresh in all our minds after this years Rugby World Cup, the students were keen to begin their rugby training 🏉 The students of 3rd & 4th class had their first training session today and got off to a great start. It’s super to see students trying out new sports and finding new interests! Thanks to all at Gort & Connacht Rugby for this lovely experience!
