Circus Time!

The boys in the Wise Oaks class and the children in Múinteoir Ciarán's class have been busy practising their circus skills with Galway Community Circus. They have been practising their juggling, balance and co-ordination skills and are having lots of fun too!

Circus skills

Recently in the Wise Oaks class, we have been learning some circus tricks on Friday’s! We’ve been practicing our skills of juggling and are having great fun learning new tricks!

Trip to the cinema

Last week the children from the Wise Oaks classroom and the Clever Acorns classroom were invited to the Eye Cinema for a special sensory screening of the movie Smallfoot. We got the bus from Doughiska Road and before the movie, the boys in the Wise Oaks went to the pet shop to look at all of the interesting animals there. They even got to pet the little rabbits! The boys really enjoyed the movie and were learned all about the importance of having new ideas and being a good member of society.

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!

Dina School Graduation

This week we celebrated our achievements and learning about behaviour in our classroom! We graduated from Dina Schools, as we get ready to go into First Class. 

Fire Engine Fun

Today we had a very special, surprise visit to our school. The fire engine and firemen from the Galway Fire Station visited us! We learnt all about how to use the hose to put out fires and we even got to climb aboard the fire engine and try on the helmets and gas masks! Lots of us would like to be brave fire fighters when we get older!
