Learning about Egypt

3rd class were hard at work this month on projects. They studied all about Ancient Egypt and learned about the pharaohs, pyramids and the gods and goddesses that were worshiped.

Here are some pictures of the children's great projects!

Country Colours

To show our pride for our families cultures and countries we wore the colours of their flag to school!

Learning about Spain

Junior Infants have been very lucky to have 2 Spanish students working with their class. Andrea and Angela taught them all about the country of Spain and even showed the boys and girls how to do 2 traditional Spanish dances - the Cha Cha and the Macarena! Here they are practising their  moves!

Diversity Code

Our wonderful Diversity Team came up with a fantastic diversity code for the school to use. 

" Racism isn't cool, so keep it out of school!" 

Intercultural Festival

Our Intercultural Festival was a huge success! The children had great fun getting their passports stamped and learning about all the different countries and cultures we celebrate in our school. 

Senior Infants had fun getting their passports stamped at each country they visited.

Irish Myths and Legends

Second class have been learning all about traditional Irish myths and legends. 

Learning about Poland

The children have been learning all about Poland for the International Festival we are having, to work towards getting our Yellow Flag! Some of the parents very generously gave their time to teach the children songs, poems and dances and read traditional Polish stories to the children.
