We have been very busy in third class. The children have recounted some of the activities they have carried out in recent times.
Every Thursday we do GAA with Stephen and he is very good. He thought us lots of stuff about GAA and now we really like it. We also went swimming in Tallaght Leisure Centre and we had lots of fun. There was a deep end and a shallow end. The people who could swim went in the deep end and the people who couldn’t went in the shallow end. We all really like swimming now. Swimming is lots of fun! – Roxi-J, Eoin, Cara, Amidat
For active schools week, we had an obstacle course. It was fun because we all took part. Some people had to go to cross country that day and missed the obstacle course. Some kind 6th class showed us how to do the obstacle course. We all had so much fun. We did not want to stop! – Kya, Tadhg, Ellen, Sean, Lauren
We also did dancing during active schools week with a girl called Leah. We all took part and had fun dancing to the song Giant. Leah was really kind and thought us the dance. At the end she said we were really good dancers. My favourite part was the very start when we were on the ground. Sean’s favourite part was when it was over haha. – Kya, Ellen, Sean, Lauren, Evan
We walk to Tymon park for Cross country with the other 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th classes. Ms O’Leary and Una come with us. Then when we arrive we do some stretches and exercises. 6th class go first, then 5th, 4th and finally 3rd class. We were all happy and we walked back to school and told teacher the good news. Cara had come 1st, Ciarán came 3rd and Tadhg came 5th. We had great fun! – Ciarán and Tadhg
On the last day before Easter holiday we had an Easter egg hunt. Ms. Leonard hid the Easter eggs in the garden. We found them all and ate them. Then we watched a movie with our friends. We had so much fun. – Kaithlin, Zoey, Dylan, Hollie
We did clay monsters in school. It was so much fun. First we molded them, then we let them dry. Then we painted them. We were allowed to sit beside our friends for art. - Evan, Patrick
We won a competition and got free compost and seeds. We put the compost discs in the cups and poured in water. Then we put the seeds in. we could picked from cress, tomatoe or pea seeds. – Zoey, Dylan, Robyn
We were doing 2D and 3D shapes in maths. We went outside and did a shape trail to find any 2D or 3D shapes. We were allowed to find them in pairs so it was a lot of fun! - Hollie, Evan
