Fine motor and sensory play in action! Another fun week in Preschool!
Happy St.Brigid's Day from 3rd Class.
As part of an Erasmus project, 5th class simulated a European Council summit meeting to discuss the European Commission’s proposal to resolve the migration issue. The students acted as prime ministers of the EU countries, with each putting forward their country’s perspective. To conclude, each ‘prime minister’ then cast their vote: YES or NO to the proposal. Well done 5th👏 👏
5th class enjoyed a taster station at 4th class’s STEM lab. They completed the challenges set (eg. Coding , building bridges & stable Lego towers)
