Ms. Flynn's Junior Infants had great fun building lego structures with the help of Ms. Concannon's 4th class girls. They made some really creative pieces.

Mindfulness and Meditation with Sally
As part of our Health Promoting Schools Programme, all classes are engaging in mindful activities. Each term different classes will have meditation classes with Sally. This term 3rd, 4th and 5th classes have their turn of meditation which they started on Wednesday the 15th of January. The girls engaged in relaxation activities, focused on breathing and experienced being mindful before walking mindfully back to their classrooms. The girls really enjoyed this experience and are looking forward to doing it again. Some classes have even been walking mindfully to and from the hall since they learned this skill from Sally!

Grandparents Day!!
The Junior Infants had a wonderful day on Wednesday the 29th of January when their Grandparents visited us here in St.Brigid's. There was great excitement as our visitors arrived. The girls from Ms. Flynn's and Ms. Costello's class played games with their Grandparents, sang a song and asked them lots of questions about school long ago. The girls loved having their Grandparents in school with them. It was a great day !!

Cycling Safety in 5th Class
Both 5th classes have been busy learning about safety when cycling over the last few weeks. They were given lessons on how to check that their bicycles were safe to use and how to make adjustments to their bicycles so that they are road worthy. They have been learning about how to cycle safely on the road and have improved their cycling skills. It has been a very fun learning experience for the girls. Hopefully we will see much more girls cycling to and from school from now on.
