Our theme for April was the art Gallery so we had a very creative month. We created art with sand, bricks, cutting and sticking and even playdough. Here are some pictures of us playing at some of these stations:

Here is some of the lovely art that we created that was inspired by some very famous artists:

Happy Easter from Senior Infants!

We had a very fun and busy month in March. Our theme was the garden centre and we learned lots about plants, flowers and mini-beasts.

Here are some pictures of us having fun in the garden centre role play area:

We also sowed our own sunflower seeds and have learned how to look after them.

One person is in charge of watering our seedlings everyday. As you can see we are doing a great job:

You may have noticed some green clothes in our photos this was to celebrate saint Patrick’s day. Here is our whole class with the pots of gold we made.

We also went on a nature walk looking for the signs of Spring. Take a look:

Lastly you might have noticed our window in school, where we have our art displayed. We painted flower sun-catchers and drew patterns on our butterflies with oil pastels :

Here is some of what we learned about flowers and plants:

Last week, on the 7th of March it was world Book day. We had all sorts of book characters in our class for the day, from Little red riding Hood  Adam the astronaut  and everything in between. Can you guess who we were dressed up as?

Some other children brought their favourite books to school and we talked and asked questions about them.

Then, teacher read us one of her favourite stories:

This months theme was construction. We learned all about people who work at  building houses and had great fun playing in our builders yard.

Here we are at playtime, hard at work:

We also made junk art based on the construction theme. Some of us built houses just like a builder would and others made the machines builders use.  Have a look at some of our creations.

We also did some more building themed class art. We made bulldozers, builders, builders hats and tools.

It was also Valentines so we made heart shaped foxes and made LOVEly prints:
