Halloween

Dressing up for Halloween is so much fun in Merlin Woods Primary School. We terrified and tricked our teachers... and our teachers had fun too tricking some of us too! 

We also had a Halloween disco, dancing along to some spooky music! 

Reading with Author Derek Mulvern

This week we took a trip to Ballybane library, to listen to an author read to us. 

We travelled on a big bus and sang songs along the way. 

Derek Mulveen is from Galway, just like us, and has written books like Oisín the Brave, Moon Adventure and Treasure Island. 

We had great fun listening to him reading his stories to us! We even joined in making using some alien language he taught us! 

We were very happy after our trip to the library! 

Maths for Fun!

This week we invited our parents into our classroom to play some Numeracy games with us! We had so much fun and it was great to have mums and dads helping us to learn in Numeracy! 

Weekly trip to the School Library

We are very lucky in Merlin Woods Primary School to have such an amazing library that we can visit every week. After lunch every Thursday, we all go upstairs and return our library books. We then browse through the many great books and choose a new one to take home for that week. Once we've chosen our books, we have a chance to read them in the quiet space of the library.
