Senior Infants have been making the most of the lovely weather this spring. The children have been learning about the Garden Centre in Aistear and we planted pea, radish and salad leaves seeds.
We went on a spring nature hunt with Anne and learnt about the silver birch tree. We observed, drew and painted plants and flowers in the side garden with Patricia.
The children had great fun painting a group spring collage!
Learning about Hallow'een
Senior Infants have been learning all about Hallow’een. We learnt about the old Irish tradition of carving turnips and read the story The Gigantic Turnip. Anne helped us to harvest the pumpkins from our vegetable bed. Patricia helped us to examine the different shades of orange and create our own shades using red and yellow paint. Niamh was very impressed with all the amazing pumpkins the children painted!

Author Visit!
Junior Infants love books and reading, and were delighted to get to read one of the 4th Class Write a Book entries before the spring break. The book, ‘The Kitten Mystery’ was written by a very talented author in 4th class who very kindly came to our classroom window for an interview this morning! We are really looking forward to the sequel!
Planting Potatoes!
On Friday, Junior Infants were delighted to get their hands muddy when we went out to the garden to plant potatoes with Anne! We can’t wait to watch them grow, and hope to harvest them in June!
