The Community Games Quiz

It is different to other quizzes because you can rotate the people in the team after each round. The competitors are Eoin and Daragh O’ Dea, Eleanor and Lauren East, Jack Coleman and Conn Naughton. Good Luck!!!

Junior Room Writing
The children in the Junior Room have looked at the Lifecycle of the Frog as part of their Spring theme. They learned about the different stages in the lifecycle and all the characteristics of each stage. They created some lovely frog pictures by sponge painting. (See more on our STEM page). The children also used the topic to explore the writing genre of Explanation.
Clay Investigations
4th, 5th and 6th class pupils have been examining the properties and characteristics of Clay and the changes that occur to it when mixed with water. Go over to our STEM page to see an account of their investigations.
