The boys and girls in 1st and 2nd class joined their first Zoom Art Session on Friday 5th March 2021.

They made some 3-D trees using paint and card.

We have been busy in our classroom learning about different winter birds. We looked at bird names, the life-cycle of a bird, the parts of a bird and their functions. We also watched a nature show, learning about the habits of birds. The pupils were also given a practical task to design and make their own bird feeders, using recyclable materials. We created some lovely winter pictures, using printing with paint.

Have a peek below at some of the bird feeders we made!

Well done to Joshua Hughes in Second Class, who picked the winning title for our  Christmas DVD.  I think everyone will agree the title ‘Not Such a Silent Night!’ is very apt for our production.

Mrs. Mc Guirk’s Little Angels have been very busy preparing for Christmas and are super excited about our Christmas recording today!

Although we celebrated Halloween in a slightly different way this year, we still participated in lots of Halloween activities.  We learned lots about the History of Halloween and its’ traditions in S.E.S.E., we learned lots of tips about keeping safe in S.P.H.E. and created our own safety tips posters, we wrote our own acrostic Halloween poems and completed Halloween Spiders and Frames in Art.  We were delighted that we still got the opportunity to dress up and participate in a fancy dress parade!  The outfits were fabulous!  We finished our last day before our Halloween holidays,  with a Halloween movie and some tasty treats.

Mrs Mc Guirk’s room used their ‘maths eyes’ during maths week to solve mathematical problems in various pictures.
