Harvest in the garden

What a busy few weeks we have had in Senior Infants learning so many new songs and poems and learning all about nature and the signs of autumn we see all around us. We have enjoyed leaf printings, apple printings and painting too. We enjoy Zumba and yoga time and also love when it’s time for aistear and having lots of fun with all our friends every day. Happy Halloween to all! A big thank you to Holly and James McKnight who cared for our newly hatched chickens and duckling during the summer holiday. They returned to our school garden when school resumed and all could see how much they had grown and changed all summer. We now have our beautiful hens back and there is great joy each morning when children collect the wonderful fresh eggs. They definitely are an eggcellent addition to our garden!

Harvest in the garden

To celebrate Harvest time in the garden we invited parents to come and collect their child and choose pumpkins from our Pumpkin Patch on Wednesday and Thursday.

Our wonderful artists drew designs on the pumkins. Hot chocolate and cookies were available on both days. Happy harvest and Happy Halloween to all!

A special word of thanks to Mr. Cronin and all the 6^th class students who worked on a rota basis throughout the day.A great event for all. Well done to Caitlin, Milan and Jessica who were our D.Js for the day.
