First week in Junior Infants
Ms. Concannon and Ms. Malone's Junior Infant classes had a wonderful first week in school. They settled in really well and enjoyed meeting their classmates for the very first time. The girls had lots of fun playing, colouring, singing songs and reading stories. We look forward to many more fun filled days together.

Senior Infants Working Hard!!!
The girls in Senior Infants have settled back into school really well and have been learning lots while having loads of fun. They have been doing some fine motor activities in the mornings such as threading, play-dough and construction to get their little fingers nice and strong & ready for all the handwriting! The girls also have been learning about growing up and looking at pictures from when they were a baby. For art they looked at Picasso's famous work 'The Weeping Woman'. The girls then got the chance to create their own Picasso style faces!
