Fáilte go Rang 5/6

5/6th class have had a busy term with lots of things happening both inside and outside the classroom. They enjoyed their trip to the Abbey Arts Centre to watch the film ‘A Dog’s Way Home’ as part of the ‘Wainfest’ celebrations. They have also been working hard on their entries for the Allingham Arts Festival in both the art and creative writing competitions. 

Maths Week was a busy one for 5/6th class. All children participated in a Maths Treasure hunt. They also created a Maths trail for the senior infants and had great fun helping and mentoring the senior infants as they completed the trail. Some children in the class also spent time with the Junior Infants playing Maths games.

​

The class have been working towards running a 5k and have been following the ‘Couch to 5K programme’ in PE each week. Many in the class have also been playing as part of the school football team and have shown great commitment and sportsmanship. ​

Our 6th class debate team have been extremely busy putting together their arguments for our ‘Mock debate’ that is taking place this week. This is a great opportunity to practise for their first heat in the Concern Primary debating competition that will take place on Thursday 10th November via Zoom.

The class have also been working on a Halloween Drama about a ghost school. They are looking forward to performing it for the other classes this week. They are also planning a ‘spooky walkway’ in the senior corridor that will be there for all to enjoy on the last day before the Halloween Holidays. Pictures to follow...
