Making Easter boxes

We have been talking a lot about Easter, the story of the Resurrection, celebrating Easter, Easter bunnies and chicks. Today we made some lovely Easter boxes. They look so pretty!

Artists at work in Room 5

We have been painting in class. It is great fun and our paintings look great. Why not have a look at us at work?

Printing in Room 8

We did some lovely printing using half of an apple. We did them in green in the outline of an apple. We think they look very nice.

We love working with clay. Today we did lots of things with clay. We pinched it, squeezed, rolled, squashed, molded, and made clay pinch pots (which we didn't leave to dry this time), and fantastic animals, which will dry on the window sill and which we can paint next week. Have a look at our work:

St. Patrick's Day art in Room 5

We made headbands, shamrock caterpillars and lucky leprechauns for St. Patrick's Day. They look great!

St. Patrick's Day art

Today we spent the morning doing art. We painted flags for St. Patricks Day. We learned about the colours of the Irish flag and we painted the flags. We painted shamrocks as well. We are going to see the children from the Senior School tomorrow as they will be marching down Renmore. We can't wait to see them and we will wave our flags as they march past.

What Makes a Rainbow, Room 1, Junior Infants

This week we listened to the story " What make a Rainbow? " It was a story about a little rabbit who wanted to know what makes a rainbow. He asked all his animal friends and they told him by naming all the colours......red, orange, yellow, indigo, blue, violet and green. When we see a rainbow it means a rain shower is on the way. We painted rainbows in school this week.
