Christmas 2021 🎄🎅🏻⭐

Junior Infants were very busy getting into the Christmas spirit during Aistear in December. They were designing and building toys in Santa's workshop, making Christmas cards, playing Christmas games and lots more!

Science week November 2021 👨🏻‍🔬👩🏻‍🔬🔬

Science week brought lots of activity to the Junior Infants this year. We tried the STEM challenge of making bubbles on our tables using washing up liquid, honey, water and straws. We also tried balloon boarding with a table on top of many balloons. When our weight was distributed over several balloons, the balloons did not burst because the pressure was spread over the large area of the table. This was super fun! The rainbow skittles experiment was also very exciting as we loved observing how the water made the sugar and food colouring on the skittles dissolve to make a colourful rainbow plate! 🌈💧🎈✅

Halloween 2021 🎃👻

Junior Infants had lots of fun dressing up for Halloween in school. We explored the theme of 'Halloween' in aistear. We created a potion shop in our role-play, made magic potions during water play, painted spider webs in art along with lots more fun learning activities! 🎭🎨✍🏻

Autumn nature trail 2021 🍂

During October we explored the Science, History and Geography of the local area around our school on a nature trail. We collected horse-chestnut, beech and sycamore tree leaves and identified them using a leaf key. Along the way we even got to see and explore the old Tarmon National School building! 🏫🍁
