5th/6th class blog

5th classes went on a local history walk today. It was a glorious day to explore the history of our surroundings.

5th class enjoyed experimenting with polymer.

6th Class have been learning all about the Titanic recently. Last month, we took a trip to Cobh on the train to visit the Titanic Experience. Múinteoir Hannah's class took inspiration from this and got to work creating their own exhibition.

6th Class have hopped on “Sam’s Business Bus” this month. They’ve been tuning in online to learn all about entrepreneurship, business ideas and everything in between. They’re well-equipped to follow their business dreams! Definitely some future entrepreneurs in the making.

We had the privilege of welcoming Jessica from the National Heritage Council, here are some of the things we learned…

Our amazing fifth classes took on the VEX Robotics Competition at MTU and what a day it was!

It’s been a busy few weeks for fifth class. Here are some of the things that we got up to…

Múinteoir Hannah's 6th Class channelled their inner crazy scientists during Science Week as they created a colourful Science Fair for the Junior Infants.

It has been such a busy time in 5th class. We celebrated science week with a plethora of experiments, including an exploration of our olfactory sense to decipher taste and we learned all about refraction of light. We crafted cosy winter hats and we went on our penultimate bus trip to Coral swimming in Cobh. All that, mixed with the usual rounds of academic excellence

Fifth-class students recently enjoyed an exciting golf lesson with Paul from Golf Ireland. For many, it was their first time trying the sport…

This week both fifth classes joined forces for a PE lesson on reply racing.  It was a fantastic display of teamwork.

This year our 5th classes collaborated to make motorised cars with their own gear system. We love a challenge :-)

Our 5th class students recently returned from an unforgettable adventure at Oysterhaven. We were blessed with the weather and the day provided us with an exciting blend of educational activities and outdoor experiences. We were thrilled with the success of this trip and proud of our students for their enthusiasm and excellent behaviour throughout.

Exploring local history with our children isn't just about understanding the past; it's about connecting them to the rich tapestry of their community.

Our Rang 5 classes have been transformed into a buzzing science hub this term. From concocting crazy chemical reactions to unravelling mysteries of the universe, our young scientists are diving headfirst into all sorts of exciting experiments.

Happy Valentine’s Day! 💖 Today, let’s celebrate the love of reading with our 5th class bookworms! There’s no greater love story than the one between a child and their favorite book.
