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! 

Water Week

This week we celebrated Water Week and Science Week by carrying out lots of science experiments involving water. Here  we are predicting whether different times will float or sink in water. We then tested our ideas and discovered lots of fun facts about water!

Busy at Work

We love to work hard and play hard in our classroom.  In the mornings, we do structured play and it helps us to learn social skills, as well as problem solving. After we play, we continue to learn by working hard at our tabletop activities,  like handwriting and maths! We love the mix of fun and hard work in our classroom!

Spring Walk

Spring is here! Múinteoir Ailish's First class and Múinteoir Denise's Clever Acorns spent a lovely afternoon enjoying the spring sunshine in Merlin Woods and the surrounding area. The children discovered many signs of spring, including spring flowers such as daffodils, dandelions and daisies, as well as finding several buds on the trees! On their trip, the children also found many animal habitats. Spring is a very exciting time in nature, with signs of new life all around us!
