Fáilte go Rang a Dó!
September & October in Rang a Dó
2nd Class have had a very busy term! We started this term off by learning all about ourselves and our bodies. We created and painted our own life size drawings and labeled them as Gaeilge.
We had lots of fun competing in the school relay team day where we got to take part in different relay races. The winning teams were very happy with their prizes!
We also enjoyed a trip to the Abbey Centre to see the film ‘Kensuke’s Kingdom’ as part of the Wainfest festival. Everyone was so well behaved and thought the film was ‘class.’
We have been attending mass every couple of weeks in preparation for our First Holy Communion and we have enjoyed learning new songs to sing at mass.
This week we celebrated Halloween in class by learning all about the Day of the Dead festival and we created and decorated our own sugar skulls. We had ‘spooky P.E’ this week and we are looking forward to a great day on Friday when we attend the Halloween Disco dressed up in our costumes.
We are looking forward to another busy term on the run up to Christmas!

November & December i Rang a Dó
Táimid an-ghnóthach i Rang a Dó na laetha seo! What a busy term we have had here in 2nd class! Our class are full of Christmas cheer and are ready for the big man to arrive!
Back in November we were very lucky to visit the Abbey Centre to listen to some storytelling by Joe Brennan. This was one of the events organised as part of the Allingham festival and children enjoyed the interactive stories that Joe had to tell them.
We also thoroughly enjoyed a hurling session with some of our Past Pupils who are now in Coláiste. We had a great time and we definitely have a few future hurling All Stars in our midst!
We have been learning about playground games in the past and have been trying out some of the games on the playground - our favourite one being ‘Four Corners.’ We have also been doing lots of practical Maths and making our own 3D shapes.
We have been very busy with our school play called ‘A Tale of Two Birthdays.’ We’ve had great fun learning all the new songs and dances and everyone shone on the stage on Monday past - maith sibh a pháistí!
Our Christmas Art has filled our classroom with beautiful pictures of winter wonderlands, Patrick Kielty’s Christmas jumper and also beautiful Christmas decorations showing the nativity scene. Some of our Christmas decorations have been displayed on our School Christmas Tree in St Anne’s Church as part of their Christmas Tree festival.
After all our hard work in the lead up to our Christmas play, we visited the cinema to watch 'Wicked.' Everyone enjoyed the film and the popcorn and drinks went down a treat!
We have also been busy learning lots of new songs for our special assembly with Cannon Munster held on Friday past. Some of our new songs we have sung at Mass and we are still regularly attending mass every two weeks in preparation for receiving our Holy sacraments in the new year.
We’d like to wish everyone a Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year! Nollaig shona daoibh go léir!
