Maths Week October 2017

19 10 2017

The Junior Room really enjoys taking part in Maths Week each year. We went to Ardagh Heritage and Creativity Centre, Ardagh, Co. Longford. The rain didn’t dampen our math spirits and we had great fun looking and creating with shapes in the centre.

You can visit the Ardagh Heritage and Creativity Centre Facebook page to see the great work we did with shapes.

Maths can be tiring work…

Aistear June 2017

3 10 2017

June 2017 we were focusing on the theme of the Space during our Aistear Play Sessions.

We had very busy engineers building rockets while our astronauts and aliens kept the space station working smoothly!

This month (April/May 2017) we have been focusing on the theme of the Vets during our Aistear Play Sessions. We had different stations to have helping fun in

  1. Vets (role play area)

The Vet Surgery was full of very sick and injured animals that needed care and attention! There was even an occasional operation!

2. Lego Vet Surgery (smallworld)

Our smallworld Vet surgery was caring for many animals, big and small!

3. Play-Doh (creative area)

Our artists were letting their creatives sides shine in this area…

Here are the animals they created…

Junior Room Tour June 2017

22 06 2017

We had an excellent day on our tour to Mollie Moo’s Pet Farm in Mullingar on Wednesday 21st June. We had loads to do: playing in the playground; feeding all the animals; racing on go-karts; exploring a mini-town; digging in a sandpit and playing a round of crazy golf. We also found time to eat our lunch in the sunshine. We had some very tired Infants on the way home. It was a great day!
