First Class 2022-2023

Term 1

'Concentric Circles' inspired by Wassily Kandinsky

The children really enjoyed creating their own version of the famous artwork 'Concentric circles' by Wassily Kandinsky.  They used a variety of different oil pastels and white card.  It is a lovely colourful display to have in the classroom.

Autumn Nature Walk

The children went on a lovely nature walk all around the school building looking for signs of Autumn.  They collected lots of different types of leaves, sycamore seeds and pine cones. 

Leaf Printing

The children used some of the leaves that they collected on their nature walk for leaf printing.  They carefully painted the backs of each leaf, pressed it down onto white paper and peeled it off to create some beautiful leaf prints.

Storytelling with Niall de Búrca

The children all really enjoyed the storytelling session with Niall de Búrca.  Bhí sé ar fheabhas!

Nature Walk to Ballywaltrim

We went on a nature walk with Carol to Ballywaltrim in the lovely Autumn sunshine.  The children spotted lots of signs of Autumn along the way.
