Seachtain na Gaeilge 1ú -17ú Márta 2015

9/3/2015

 
Picture
Bíonn Seachtain na Gaeilge ar siúl in Éirinn, agus i dtíortha eile gach bliain. I mbliana, tá an fhéile ar  siúl idir an 1ú agus an 14ú Márta.

Beidh daltaí scoile ag labhairt Gaeilge chomh minic agus is féidir agus beidh imeachtaí éagsúla ar siúl i rith na seachtaine. Sa scoil seo, beidh Ceolchoirm ar siúl ar an Aoine, le dánta, amhráin agus damhsaí gaeilge. Táimid go léir ag déamamh  iarracht  gaeilge a labhairt sa seomra ranga.  Ar an Luan seo chugainn, beidh "Lá Glas" againn le paráid freisin.


Seachtain na Gaeilge takes place in Ireland and in other countries every year. This year it takes place on the 1st-14th of March.

Children in schools will be speaking Irish and there will be various events happening during the week. In our school we will have an Irish Concert on Friday with poems, songs and irish dancing and we are doing our best to speak extra Irish in class too.



Next Monday we will have a "Green Day” where children will be invited to wear something green and there will be a school parade.

Visit www.snag.ie for more information or why not visit some Irish websites in our Learning Zone section.

Well done to Meaghan from 6th class who will be representing St. Brigid's in the Dublin Finals of the National Spelling Bee on the 19th March!
After a gruelling and tense first round in school, Meaghan emerged from the pack of superb spellers as a deserving winner!
Congrats Meaghan and best of luck in the next round! Many thanks to Ms. Phelan for organising the event.

Room 14's JEP project- The Pink Bakery!

5/3/2015

5 Comments

 
This year Room 14 are taking part in the Junior Entrepreneur Project (JEP) .
We split into groups and shared our ideas before choosing our favourite one. Next the dragons came in and every group showed their idea. They then decided on their favourite one.
We decided to make three products to sell at Room 16's cake sale raising money for the Caroline Foundation. These are delicious cupcakes, Choreos (chocolate covered Oreos) and Cocoa on the Go (ready to go hot chocolate). 
We are only selling 100 of each product so make sure you come over to our stall and buy some before we are sold out!
Everything is only €2 or a super bargain deal of 3 products for €5!
We can't wait to sell our products and we can't wait to see you there!
Sincere thanks to Joan and Ms. Phelan for allowing us to be part of their cake sale. Make sure you donate as much as you can on the day for the Caroline Foundation!
by Sarah B and Amy, Room 14
STEP ONE
Here we are brainstorming! We had great fun doing this and hearing all the great ideas.

STEP TWO
Next we held a Dragon's Den in our classroom. The dragons were John Tuohy, Karen Hargan and our principal Ms.Burke. Each group presented their ideas and were quizzed on everything about it. After every group had presented their product the dragons went down to the back of the room to discuss the ideas that we had pitched. They found it very hard to choose but in the end they put a couple of ideas together that they thought would work as one idea. We decided to make a bakery that would sell chocolate covered Oreos, cupcakes and Cocoa on the Go. Even though not all of our ideas were picked we are all still very excited to work on our bakery!
Tense times as we pitch our ideas!
John, Karen and Ms. Burke consider our products...
It's an anxious wait as the Dragons decide which product to go with!
Next, we gave ourselves a name- The Pink Bakery
Well done to Sophie from the Design and Production team who came up with our super logo. Watch out for this brand on all of our products on the day!

STEP THREE 

We broke into our groups to make our product a reality. We all have different responsibilities in our groups. There are five different groups. The storytelling group, the design and production group, the sales group, the finance group and our marketing group. The storytelling group's job is to make a folder saying everything we are doing for our JEP project in a story with pictures. The design and production group's job is to make sure that all of our products look okay and that everything is in place. The sales group's job is to co-ordinate the selling on the day. The finance team's job is to keep track of all the money we spend, pricing everything we buy and  figuring out if me make a profit or a loss. The marketing team's job is to publicise our product and see how many people would be interested in buying our product .
