We love nature

We love learning about nature in our class! We went to the woods and discovered lots of exciting things that happen in autumn. We even found a squirrel searching for food, preparing for hibernation!

Baking

We have been busy baking lots of delicious treats in our class. We read the recipe and gather all of the ingredients that we need for our recipe. Then we work together to follow the different steps in the method to prepare the batter. When we have prepared the ingredients, we finally put our batter into the oven and wait patiently for our delicious snack. Look at our yummy cookies that we recently made and decorated!

10 at 10 for Operation Transformation

Today we had great fun celebrating '10 at 10' for Operation Transformation! All of the children in the school took part in activities such as hip-hop dancing, skipping, jogging, soccer, Irish dancing and lots of other fun exercises! We spent our 10 minutes exercising in the Jungle Gym! Look at all of the energy we used and the fun we had! We were very sweaty and hot after and we were very happy too!
