Today as Junior Infants went on their nature walk around the school, they discovered the very first sign of Spring! A snowdrop had appeared in the front garden.  

WEIGHT This month we are looking at Weight and comparing objects of different weights and sizes. We used tights as weighing scales to investigate the weight of different objects! Then we used Balance Scales to find out which objects were heavier or lighter.   Creating a Balance from wooden blocks!

Over the next couple of weeks, we are exploring life in Antarctica, looking at the different animals who live there and learning about the famous Irish explorers Ernest Shackleton and Tom Crean. Building the Scientist Station on Antarctica!   Making Emperor Penguins! Creating Antarctica out of rice! Exploring Antarctica through play!
