World Book Day
World Book Day 2018 takes place on Thursday, March 1st. As part of this event we are encouraging children (and parents) to enjoy the pleasures of reading and SHARE A STORY on World Book Day… and every day. Spending just 10 minutes a day reading and sharing stories with children can make a crucial difference to their outcome and it’s fun for all involved. You can read together anywhere and everywhere, from breakfast to bedtime! In the park, on the train, on the sofa, on a plane – reading and sharing stories can happen anywhere at any time.

Things are measuring up in 3rd Class!
The boys in Ms. O’Neill’s 3rd Class have been busy doing all kinds of measuring. We have been finding the length of many objects and distances using rulers, metre sticks and trundle wheels. We have also been finding the area of various shapes in the classroom using a variety of items to measure with, including our books, copies, whiteboards and paint trays.
