We have been having great fun learning all about autumn during Aistear. We worked together to clean up the fallen leaves as part of the Tidy Towns, we did beautiful leaf rubbings, we made autumn jigsaws, we built shelters for Harry the Hedgehog and developed our fine motor skills with our play dough. It’s almost Halloween now, time flies when you’re having fun!
Lord Mayor Kieran McCarthy visited Our Lady of Lourdes NS on Friday 8th September. The girls and staff gave him a great welcome, singing his song "Oh what a beautiful morning" as he arrivied. The Lord Mayor has a very long association with our school stretching back...
Rang a haon had so much fun learning all about volcanoes. They researched the names of volcanoes and learned a little about them, labelled diagrams, created fabulous explanation writing pieces and wrote up a science experiment, which they put all together in volcano shaped booklets they made themselves. In art they used plaster and paint to make their own volcanoes and carried out a science experiment to make that volcano explode. What a blast we had!
Well done to all of the Second Class pupils for taking part in the Our Lady of Lourdes Feis and performing their poems. Everyone worked very hard on them. A special congratulations to this years prize winners!
