Church Trail at St. Mary’s Church, Castlecomer

On Monday, 12th March, the Junior Room visited St. Mary’s Church in Castlecomer to complete a church trail on work covered to date in Religion.
The children worked in pairs to observe and record the features within a church. Here are some photographs of the children participating in the Church Trail!
The children really liked the stained glass window depicting the story of the Lost Sheep. It reminded them of Ms. Power’s assembly last Friday when they got the opportunity to see and pet a newborn baby lamb named “Lucky!”
The children worked so well on the Church Trail so we took a well deserved trip to the Discovery Park’s Playground! Have a look at all the fun they had!

We remembered St. Brigid’s Day at the start of February and the children had great fun designing St. Brigid’s Cloak using coloured mosaics!
In SESE, the children have been learning about Water. We had great fun learning about the Water Cycle and we learned a poem called “Splish Splosh” The children drew lovely pictures to illustrate this poem. Take a look at their drawings below!
The children in First Class wrote a character description of the characters in the fairytale “Goldilocks and the Three Bears”
In Gaeilge, the children learned all about “An Teilifís” and drew their favourite television programme or cartoon!
In SPHE, the children learned all about our emotions and as an art activity they designed a paper plate puppet which has a two sided face displaying two different emotions. Look at their emotional puppets!
In English, the children have been busy learning their February “WOW” words which is part of the school’s strategy in further developing literacy in our school!
The children also listened to the story of Elmer the Elephant and they designed their own patterned coat for Elmer using rolled up crepe paper too!
Well done to the Junior Room on all your lovely work this February!!
