Planting potatoes

We planted potatoes outside. John helped us plant them and he told us a lot about planting potatoes and how they like rough soil better. Hopefully in the summer we will have some potatoes to cook. 

Planting trees

As part of a school project to raise awareness about climate change we are learning about how trees affect climate change and how planting more trees could help the environment. We decided to plant a new tree in the garden to raise awareness of the importance of planting new trees. 

Planting carrots indoors

This week we have been learning all about plants, seeds and trees. We are trying to offset our carbon footprint by planting lots of vegetables and plants. Here we are planting some carrot seeds. We will transport them outside after Easter. 

Uni hoc

We had great fun this week in PE learning how to play uni-hoc. 

Bi Gnothach

This year we are setting up a mini business with 4th and 6th class. We decided to make and sell lip balms. We decided on three flavours- bubblegum, passion fruit and strawberry. We mFe the passion fruit. We used orange crayon to give it an orange colour. Here are some photos of us making it during class. 

Ceili- seachtain na Gaeilge
