Generation Pound with Sarah G!
Last week, Sarah G came in to school to give a drumming / exercise workshop from 1st – 6th class. The name of the workshop is Generation Pound! It involves using drumsticks and moving to music and instruction. The children really enjoyed it!
For Junior and Senior Infants, Sarah G took both classes for a Zumba lesson in the hall!
What a great way to get active! Well done everyone and thank you Sarah!
Porridge Bread made by Senior Infants
Senior Infants have been learning all about the community in Aistear over the last few weeks. We visited the park for P.E. and went on a local community walk. Last week we focused on the restaurant and did a variety of activities based on this. These included; setting the table and making cutlery and plates out of recycled materials, writing menus, reading our porridge bread recipe and baking it too.
We had great fun, there are definitely a few chefs of the future in the class! Here is the recipe so you can try it at home.
