Tulips

Welcome to the Tulip class.

We returned to school and are looking forward to the new term. We are all working on our Junior Cert Level 1 in Communication and Language, Mathematics, Being part of the community, Physical Education, Personal care and wellbeing and the Arts.

We have been very busy exploring the themes of Autum, all about myself and my school. We have had some fabulous walks enjoying the beautiful sunshine. In Personal care and well-being, we have explored personal hygiene, staying healthy and feelings.

Music makes us all very happy in class and we love listening to music, dancing, and playing percussion instruments. We have enjoyed Music with Niamh and love experimenting with the various instruments. We particularly enjoy the keyboard and the drums. We have worked on some beautiful autumn Art creations in collage using fabric and fibre. We enjoyed painting leaves and creating our Autumn trees.

We are a very active class and love PE in the hall. We love playing basketball. We also resumed our visits to TUS for activities on a Monday morning. This is a lovely outing for the whole class. We go out to play in the basketball court every day at break or lunch which is fun for everyone.

We enjoy baking with Vera every Thursday afternoon and thoroughly enjoy measuring and mixing the ingredients. We have made chocolate buns, apple pastries, sponge cake and fairy cakes.

Our class have celebrated two birthdays this month. Happy Birthday Ellen and Eva. We enjoyed the birthday parties in class. We are looking forward to plenty of fun for the rest of the term. We will be planning our dress up outfits for our Halloween party.
