I'd like to wish everyone a Happy New Year and to welcome everyone back to school.
This week we are getting back into routine and normality.
We will be continuing practice for the Peace Proms that is coming up on the 31st January (Saturday night). For those children who are not attending I expect work to be done while we as a class are practising the songs and actions.
Spellings have been given on the homework sheet, along with maths problems relating to Money that we are continuing on this week.
We are completing our studies of New Zealand and the Maoris.
The children have decided to select projects on topics of their own choice and I have allowed them to help with their research, editing and presenting skills.
We will be beginning a novel soon based around The Famine.
The school website is now up and running also and you can access it through the link below or on our class website's homepage

The children may inform you we are in the process of applying for a schools quiz that will be on RTE junior. 5th and 6th class have decided to apply, there is not guarantee we will get on but we will keep all parents involved if we do. It would involve the class going up against another class from another school in a quiz, it involves the teachers and the possibility of winning prizes. There would be a day filming within the class and then in RTE studios also.
