Easter Camp

St. Joseph’s Easter Camp was  a jam packed four days of sports, art, games and fun for all children who attended!

Well done to the winners of the Easter Egg hunt on the final day, who showed great team work and really used their heads to follow the clues!

Congratulations also to all spot prize winners during the week, and in particular to Conor & Ryan, who were chosen for star prizes for having great attitudes towards all activities and big smiles on their faces all week!

Paired Reading

Ms. O’Neill’s 3rd Class have been enjoying visiting Ms. Gordon’s room to do paired reading with Junior Infants. The 3rd Class boys and girls love reading stories to their little reading buddies, and soon the Junior Infants will be reading to 3rd Class too!

Electricity in 3rd Class

3rd Class have been busy learning all about electricity! With the help of our visiting teacher Ms. Kinsella, the boys and girls got to experiment with some balloons, paper, tin foil and even their own hair to demonstrate how static electricity works. They also used lightbulbs, wires and batteries to make simple circuits. It was great fun figuring out how to make the bulbs light up!
