Our choir performed some festive favourites, songs from the movies and traditional Christmas songs at our annual Carol service held in St.Brigid's Church on Tuesday last. It was a wonderful evening where the school commmunity came together to listen to the girls sing while also getting the opportunity to take some timeout from the busy lead up to Christmas. Special mention to Ms.Flynn and Ms.Nagle for all thier hard work preparing the choir for the service.

The girls in Junior and Senior Infants have been very busy over the last few weeks learning songs and dances for Christmas. The Junior Infants sang a variety of Christmas songs and showed off their nice dance moves. Senior Infants performed an energetic Nativity play called "A Wriggly Nativity," with lots of music, dancing and costumes. The classes performed for the whole school on Tuesday and for their parents on Wednesday. The classes really enjoyed this experience.
Ms.Farrell's 1st class did lots of snowman activities this week. We sang 'Do you want to Build a Snowman?' from the film Frozen, we read the story The Sparkly Snowman, we wrote instructions 'How to Build a Snowman', we did some mindful snowman colouring, we made little snowmen from clay and we watched The Snowman animated film. It was SNOW MUCH FUN!!

Senior Infants were very busy over the past few weeks in Aistear exploring the theme of the Post Office. Some of the activities they engaged in included: role play in a fictional Post Office, construction of small towns for the postman, post-office bingo, designing stamps, writing letters and creating postcards. They also learned about the journey of a letter and some poems and songs relating to the theme. They had lots of fun doing these activities.
