Hi everyone,
I like to congratulate Vedh, August, Lochlan and Narottam on getting through to the finals of the Mini Scientist competition. Their traffic light project really impressed the judges and we're looking forward to the finals in February.
The children's Christmas play (Tír na nóg) will take place tomorrow morning at 9.00am. There will be tea/coffee available from 8.40 for those who wish to have a chat beforehand.
Chat soon,

Hi everyone,
The children have all been given their lines for the Christmas play so if they can practise them at home every night it would be greatly appreciated. The children have also volunteered to bring in some costumes that they have at home. The spellings this week are as follows, difference, silence, independence, absence, audience, experience, chance, balance, appearance, percentage, incredible, favourite, mise, tuse, eisin, íse.
Thanks,
Colum

Hi everyone,
Well done to everyone that took part in the science competition. It was a great success and the judges were hugely impressed with the quality of work. Congratulation to Vedh, Lochlan, August and Narotam on winning the overall prize with their traffic light project. Here's some pictures of the children demonstrating their work.

Hi everyone,
I hope you all had a lovely break. The children's appearance on RTE was televised on Friday, the link is now up on the RTE player for anyone who missed it.
The science projects are coming along nicely and the class will be given some time each day to put together the final pieces. This week, from the 7th-11th they will be working on their project books, next week 14th-16th they will be doing the visual display and then the judges from Intel will be coming in on the 17th.
The spelling for this week are as follows,
October, octopus, nonagon, decade, polygon, omnivore, megaphone, miniskirt, magnify, equinox, immediately, polite, suggestion, as well, a lot, bhí mé, arán, sicín, glasraí.

Hi everyone,
I hope you all had a nice weekend. I'm sure you've heard all about it, but we had a fantastic time in the RTE studios on Wednesday. It was great for them to see how a television studio works and by all accounts they really enjoyed themselves. The show will be aired on 29th Oct at 4:30. I've added a few pictures below.
Science week is approaching and the children have all decided on their groups for the class projects. Already I've seen some very good ideas and I've no doubt it'll be a huge success. On the week of the 7th November the children will present their project books, on the week of the 14th we will have our visual displays and then the judges from Intel will be in on the 17th. For those who have yet to choose a topic I will attach a link with lots of fun ideas. http://www.sciencekids.co.nz/experiments.html

The spelling for this week are,
immediately, irresponsible, decision, incredible, depress, overdramatic, defeat, illegal, confusion, whispered, funniest, answered, character, siopa, liom, leat, leis, leí.

Hi everyone,
I've sent home a note today about our visit to RTE next Wednesday. We'll be gone all day and if the children can bring in two euro for the bus that'd be great. Some of the children are still forgetting to get their tests signed so I'd really appreciate if you could ensure that they're signed and brought back in on Mondays. As of yet, I haven't spoken to all of the parents but I'd just like to reiterate that if there's any problem with the homework, please don't hesitate to get in contact with me. The children are all working really hard and here's a few pics of what has been going on in school.
All the best,
Colum
