Summer Fun in the Middle Room!

The final term in Wandesforde National School has been a very busy one! The boys and girls in the middle room have been learning so much over the past few months! Have a look at what we have been up to!

In Science, we have been learning all about the lifecycle of the butterfly. We were very lucky to get caterpillars and watch them grow through the various stages to become butterflies!

We then released the butterflies into our school garden, for the lifecycle to begin all over again!

We wrote about the lifecycle of the butterfly, read stories about butterflies and designed our own butterflies also!

On Thursday, 25th May, we went on our school tour to “Activate” in Waterford. We had so much fun!

We then wrote about our fun day in English…

In English, we read the story of “The Willow Pattern” and painted our own version of the pattern on paper plates…

In Science, we also explored magnetism, looking at various items to predict and record if they were magnetic or if magnets worked through them…

In SPHE, we designed flowers with our strengths and also discussed sun safety, especially with all this lovely, warm weather that we are having at the moment…

We learned about warm and cool colours in Visual Arts and created lizards in the grass using either warm or cool colours…

Next year’s first class visited us on 1st June and we all made “Jellyfish” …

We made cards for our Dads for Father’s Day. We love our Dads to the moon and back!

We really enjoyed the ice-creams on sports’ day to cool us down!

Ms. Cahill did lovely guided drawing with the children. Look at these delicious ice-creams…

Well done to you all 1st, 2nd and 3rd class on all your hard work over the past few months! I hope you all have a well earned rest over the Summer!
