Road Safety

As part of the Road Safety initiative in our school, members of the road safety authority came in to teach us about safety on the roads around our neighborhood.
We dressed up in illuminated jackets that depicted our role in the town - doctor, policeman, postman, student and so forth.
When we completed the training we got our walking licences with our photograph printed on them.

Trip to the beach

6th class went on a trip to Killiney beach on Friday with both Mr. Breathnach and Ms. Farrell. They collected rocks that are going to be decorated for their confirmation and then will be used for the sensory garden in the school. This trip is one in a collection of walking trips we will be doing to explore amenities in our locality as well as keeping fit.

UCD Science trip

In an effort to promote the study of Science with girls, 6th class girls went on a trip to UCD. We departed by bus to UCD where we were met by Liz Griffin. She took us on a tour of the campus that is home to 35,000 students. We visited the gym, swimming pool, students union, arts building, library and even visited a lecture hall. Following this we did an experiment in a science lab. We had lovely lunch in the cafe and went home after 1pm. It was truly a fantastic day and the girls were so well behaved.

Wonder


WONDER!!!!
Throughout October and November we learned about the story of August Pullman a young boy who after 32 operations and almost 12 years of home schooling finally braved the trials and tribulations of school life. We followed his and his families journey, his friends in Beecher Prep School, his sister Via and her best friend Miranda and even his dog Daisy. 
We took the Luas to Dundrum and had our own private viewing of Wonder in the VIP cinema. The students were so well behaved and a credit to the school and themselves. We cannot wait for our next trip.

What we've been up to!


This is our art that we done on Vincent Van Gough. We painted the wheat-field with crows.



We made 2-D snow globes. We put penguins or snowmen on them and for the snow 
we used foam paint. Some of us put hats and scarf''s on them. 



These are our foam painting designs. We made them by putting pva glue, shaving foam and your own choice of paint in a sandwich bag. We made our own designs like stripes, squiggles and polka dots.


On Monday we went to the Lexicon in Dun Laoghaire to do 3D printing for Science Week. We printed these keyrings using the 3D printer.
