The Willow Pattern Drama

We had our first performance of The Willow Pattern or An Crann Saileach.

It was a nerve wracking experience but we really enjoyed it.

Have a look at some of our wonderful costumes.

A huge "Thank You" to Lorainne for the fabulous sets and props

and to Sue and Maggie for all the help with the costumes.

St. Brigid's Crosses

We were learning about St. Brigid today.

We made some paper crosses and later some of us also made crosses out of reeds.

Chinese New Year

It is Chinese New Year on January 28th this year.

It is the year of the rooster!

We made some lovely Chinese Dragons.

They are on display outside our classroom.

Peace Proms

Some of us were in Dublin yesterday with Ms. Lally for a practice of the Peace Proms.  It was so much fun.  We are such good singers.  We can't wait for the actual performance on February 4th in Dublin.

Pop Up Penguins

We had fun in art, making pop-up penguins.

They are enjoying catching fish!

Willow Pattern Plates

We are really enjoying the story of the Willow Pattern.

It is a story set in China long long ago.

Today we painted the story of the Willow Pattern on our own plates.

They look fantastic!

Some Christmas Art

We had a wonderful art session today, making angels, Christmas tree decorations or cards and Nativity scenes.  We did a lovely job of all the Christmas artwork today.

Christmas Musicals

We really enjoyed today's Christmas musical produced by Ms. Fitzgerald's and Ms. Lane's Junior Infant classes.

You were just wonderful altogether.

Well done!

We were also treated to another superb musical from Ms. Connolly's class.

What great actors and musicians.

Well done to all!
