Maths Activities: Capacity
We set up outdoor water stations for exploring capacity in Maths. We liked filling the containers and ordering them by which can hold the most water.
We learned about Transport and the famous ship Titanic in May.
Chinese New Year In Junior and Senior Infants.
We were very busy this month celebrating Chinese New Year. We made a Chinese restaurant, built Chinese temples and the Great Wall of China. We made a class Chinese dragon, Chinese fans and lantern decorations.
Aistear Winter Fun!
We are exploring Winter this month through lots of playful learning activities. In Construction we are building and designing machines for the snow, in Junk Art we are making polar animals. We explored a variety of materials and used our light boxes to play at the Sensory Winter Table and we love pretending to be polar bears over at our Igloo and polar bear den area.

Team Hope Christmas Shoebox Appeal 2018
Well done to everyone who prepared shoeboxes to send away to less fortunate children around the world- we had a large collection in the front hall this year which was great to see- generosity is very much alive in our community this year!
Fire Engine Visit
In November we learned all about fire safety and rescue vehicles. The Enniscrone Firemen explained all the equipment on the fire engine and we even got to spray the water hose!
Maths Activities: Shape
Our Autumn Nature Walk.
We went on a Nature walk around the school in Kilglass to observe and record signs of Autumn. We heard and saw lots of things on our walk. We were very excited when we found a secret path behind the hedges at the back of the church- we had great fun exploring this!
Aistear : At the Hospital
Parachute Games are Fun!
We had great fun playing with the parachute today with coach Aaron Costello from Sligo Sports Partnership. We loved hiding inside the parachute to make a tent -everyone in the class had to work together and sit down at the same time which was a bit tricky!
Back to School
We welcomed our new Junior Infants on Monday and welcomed back Senior Infants to school- everyone is settling in well and enjoying daily life in Kilglass N.S. so far!
P.E. and Painting Fun.
What better way to end our first week of school with P.E. activities from GAA coach Stephen Henry and painting!
