Room 7 has been busy sewing their Christmas stockings

The girls in Room 7 have been sewing their Christmas stockings since the beginning of October but all their hard work has been worth it. They each made a stocking with their name attached on. They even learned how to use the sewing machine. Well done girls!

Merry Christmas from Room 14!

Room 14 have been busy designing and making Christmas jumpers for the past few weeks and yesterday they put on a splendid Christmas jumper fashion show for the whole school. As an extra treat, they performed the song 'Let It Go' from the movie 'Frozen' and they sang very sweetly. (So did everyone who joined in!)  Later in the day they did a special show for their invited friends and family and they serenaded them with fantastic  tin whistle performances of 'Freres Jacques' and 'Silent Night'. The girls had great fun during the whole process and as their teacher, I would like to thank them for all their hard work! You should be very proud of yourselves, girls! Well done!


Here's what the girls thought themselves!
The jumper show was great. We had loads of fun and the audience loved it. It is a memory we will never forget.
All the jumpers were very creative and a lot of work was put into making them. There were lots of different ideas from snowmen to presents to stockings to winter wonderlands and much, much more .We sang a song from the hit movie 'Frozen.' The audience loved it and they sang along.

Our parents also came in for the show. For them we did Freres Jacques and Silent Night on the tin whistle. Our parents really enjoyed the show. They thought it was very organised and they were also very proud of us. As it is our last we want to make a lot of different memories and this is definitely one of them. We also want to thank Ms Ryan for helping us with the jumper show we would not be able to do it without her.

Acrostic Poems

16/12/2014

 
Sophia from Rm 12 and Emily from Rm 15 have been busy writing acrostic poems. In an acrostic poem, the first letter of each line spells out the subject of the poem. The girls wrote poems using the word "Jingle". You can read  their poems here. 


Jingle by Sophia Rm 12                                                                          
Joyful people,                                                                                             
Ice Cold,                                                                                                   
Nollaig shona duit,                                                                                                                                                             
Goose on the table,
Lights light up,
Everyone goes asleep.


Jingle by Emily Rm 15
Joyful with trifle,
In with soft pudding,
New Years around the corner,
Getting banoffee all hours,
Eating all our gingerbread men. 

Sugar and Spice in Room 12

Ms Sheridan's class stirred up the spice this festive season with our Sugar and Spice biscuits. We weighed out our ingredients, mixed them all together and, after a 2 hour wait in the fridge, we rolled out our dough. We then cut out some Christmas shapes and baked our delicious biscuits. When they had cooled down, we decorated them with sugar and water icing and topped them off with little silver balls. Gorgeous!

On Thursday 11th December the children in Room 10 put on a fantastic Christmas show for their families. The girls played Jingle Bells on the tin whistle, recited some wonderful Christmas poetry (An Sneachta and Twas the Night Before Christmas) and sang some beautiful songs (The Gift, Little Jesus, A Christmas Wish and Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer). Well done girls, you certainly put everyone in the Christmas mood! 
Here are a few photos and videos of the show..

Every class in St. Brigid's and all the teachers took part in a Jingle Bell Run around both yards last week as we continue to work to achieve our Active  Flag. It was a wonderfully fun event with everyone dressed up in their Christmas gear and running laps of the yards with some festive tunes motivating us. Well done everyone and thank you to the ASF committee for their help with this. Click on the Active Flag page                                        for more information on this event and video highlights.  It will also keep you updated                                        with all our active flag news..

The Festive Season-Room 15

14/12/2014

We're getting very excited about Christmas in Ms Devlin's class as is everyone in St. Brigids. We've been preparing in lots of different ways from carrying out a special task each night for Advent to making Christmas decorations from recycled materials. Well done to all who participated in this competition and it was very tough to choose a winner. Abbey Talbot took first prize and Ellen Connolly got a prize for 2nd place. Fantastic effort by everyone. We've also been writing Christmas stories. We chose our favourite story starter and have worked very hard to build an exciting story. We did a story plan and a first draft. Then we edited the story ourselves before doing some partner and group editing. We are now ready to write our final draft and are very proud of our efforts. We are also really enjoying the Christmas songs for Drop Everything and Dance and had so much fun doing a JIngle Bell Run for our Active flag last week. See the Active Flag page for more details on this. Happy Christmas from Room 15. 
See the slideshow for some photos of our activities.
