3rd Class
Mr. Donnelly's 3rd Class - March
It has been another busy month for the 3rd class boys in March. Our class had a fantastic time during Seachtain na Gaeilge. We all made a great effort to speak as Gaeilge. We were also so excited to perform in Ms. Cullen's office for Raidió Naomh Bríd. The highlight of the week was definitely the céilí which we all thoroughly enjoyed. A month full of reading - we celebrated ‘World Book Day’ where we dressed up as our favourite characters and visited the school library alongside Ms. Moran’s Senior Infants. We also visited Raheny library and learned about the variety of books on offer at our local library!
Mr. Donnelly's 3rd Class - February
February has been another busy month for the 3rd class boys. The boys practiced their coding with the Chromebooks. Here they completed the Microsoft Hour of Code, where they coded and designed their very own retro arcade game!
Mr. Donnelly's 3rd Class - January
January has been a very busy month for the 3rd class boys as we settled in after the Christmas Break. We really enjoyed Grandparents Day, where we had a fantastic turnout of grandparents visiting our class. They gave some great responses to our interview questions and we learned lots of new things all about our grandparents. We played some fun board games and even had time to perform our rendition of “I’ll Tell Me Ma” for our grandparents too. This month we also learned all about St. Brigid and made St. Brigid’s Day crosses. We had the opportunity to showcase our musical talents by performing a special song about St. Brigid at the St. Brigid’s Day assembly.
Mr. Donnelly's 3rd Class - December
December has been a very exciting month for 3rd class. The boys have been busy preparing for our Christmas show, titled ‘Twas the night before Christmas’. We have been learning lots of festive songs and practicing on stage, and the excitement is building. We can’t wait to showcase our hard work with family and friends during the performance. In between our rehearsals, we’ve also been getting creative with some Christmas artwork. Check out some snaps from our dress rehearsal below. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you all!
Mr. Donnelly's 3rd Class - November
It has been another busy month for the 3rd class boys in November. We have been taking part in weekly Gaelic football sessions with our GAA coach, Ciarán. The boys are learning ball skills such as soloing, hand passing, working as a team and playing simple games that will ultimately lead to small matches.
We also created our November Remembrance tree and leaves in the Holy Space of our classroom.
Mr. Donnelly's 3rd Class - October
October has been another busy month for the boys in 3rd class. We attended the maths carnival as part of maths week. Here we learned lots by playing games and collecting raffle tickets. Our annual sponsored walk also took place and luckily the sun was shining on the day. The boys had great fun exploring St. Anne’s Park, learning about the different trees, plants and animals that can be found there. Check out some snaps from our nature walk here!
