The girls in Ms. Barry's and Ms. McGrane's classes have been learning all about rocks and crystals. As part of this we decided to make our own crystals using salt and hot water. We had to be very careful to make sure that all of the salt was dissolved into the hot water. We had to leave the mixture for over 4 weeks in order for the crystals to form. The aim was to get them to grow on the string - but some of us got a little more than we bargained for!
We were very happy with our end result - some of us even got to take our crystals home!

The girls in 6th class have been reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in English for the past few weeks. The girls have been engaging in a number of different activities such as writing Hogwarts letters, procedural writing and diagon alley art. As part of our study of Harry Potter, the girls completed a castle project. The girls started by collecting lots of cardboard, cans and other building materials. Then, they created a plan of how they would build their castle. With the help of Noel and their teachers the girls started to construct their castles. It took a lot of hard work, but the girls were absolutely over the moon with their castles. The girls also made circuits to light up the inside of their castles and make them extra magical. On Tuesday 25th, the whole school was invited to the hall to see the amazing display. The girls displayed their castles, demonstrated magic tricks and much more.

On Friday we had our usual 'Wake up Shake up' but maths edition!! We added some new dances into the mix such as Mambo number 5 and Mr. Knickerbocker. The girls also got to wear maths t-shirts to celebrate the end of maths week. The girls in Junior and Senior Infants were very lucky to have a special visit from architect Joana Nunes. Joana spoke to the girls all about her job, and how she uses maths every day!
