We hope you enjoy some of our photos from last night’s show. We will post more as they come in
Congratulations to the staff and children for such a great show last night. A special thank you to Alan Brereton on sound and to Nicola and Lydia for the wonderful window art!
The school will close tomorrow @ 12 pm for holidays. We would like to thank you for all the help and support you give to the school throughout the year.
We also wish you all a happy, healthy and safe holiday !
We have been busy as usual in 2nd class, and have enjoyed working on a wide variety of Christmas-related crafts. Take a look and see what we have been up to!
We hung the wreaths outside our room. Ansin, thosaigh muid ag déanamh ár gCartaí Nollag.
We made other types of interesting Christmas cards by baking them! We used: 1 cup of flour, 1 tsp of salt, 1 tsp of baking powder and 3/4 of a cup of water. We had great fun squishing it all together in a sandwich bag! Then we cut a hole and piped the dough mixture out onto a Christmas shape we had chosen. Put it in the microwave and you have a baked Christmas card!

It was very messy but great fun – thanks to all the parents that came in to help.
This year our JI, Second /Third class and Sixth classes will perform a short concert on 19th December starting at 5.00pm.
We are asking parents to please leave front seats for parents of Junior Infants as there will be a short break between their show and the senior classes show. This is to allow the younger children to be taken home, this will leave front seats free for parents of the seniors.
We look forward to seeing you and that everyone will have the opportunity to see their children and enjoy the concert.
Sunday, 2nd December 2012 was such an exciting evening with Santa arriving in Robertstown to view the newly lit Crib and Christmas Tree.
The school choir sang their hearts out, accompanied by Ms. Jennifer Ennis, Ms. Diane O’Grady, Alan Brereton and Ms. Joanne Parle. Darren did a great job in keeping us all amused throughout the exciting evening. The rest of the school staff made a great effort to come along and support the children. Jordan Taaffe did a perfect job lighting up the beautiful tree. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event so memorable and special. What a special village community we have in Robertstown!!
We made some fabric faces in November.We planned out what we wanted our faces to look like. Then, we chose different materials to use, including buttons, pipe cleaners, hessian cloth, material, string and wool.
We play Maths games a lot in Second class. They help us improve our Numeracy skills.
Here are some pictures of us making our shape pictures. We used 2D shapes like triangles, circles, rectangles , semi-circles and squares.
We have also looked at right angles this term. We made some ‘angle eaters’ to help us find right / corner angles in the classroom.
We looked at symmetry in Maths and used lots of websites to help us learn.
