6th Class created projects on the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Lots of time, effort and research went into creating these masterpieces. Well done to all!
Halloween spooky cupcake competition and dress up. Last dress up in Primary school for this bunch, well done to all on some very funny, spooky and creative costumes!
5th and 6th Class Gaelic football team was very successful in reaching the final of the School’s Gaelic football league, huge congratulations to all on the team, this is the first year we’ve gotten this far. Unfortunately, were pipped to the post by Ballyduff on the day.
6th Class had a great week helping the 3rd and 4th class pupils with their Science Week experiments. 6th Class have shown excellent leadership and nurturing skills when helping the younger classes so far this year, they should be very proud of themselves, leading the way with respect and patience!
September…
6th Class have started learning German- TY pupils from the Presentation Secondary school come to our class most weeks and teach the girls some greetings and phrases in German, hoping to inspire them to consider choosing German in Secondary school.
Presentation Secondary school kindly invited 6th class to visit their school and try out some new subjects they will be participating in next year. The girls got to try PE with Beth Carton, Art, Home Ec. and science. The girls were also thrilled to get to have a treat in the student’s Canteen and see what a day in the life of a Pres Secondary school girl, is like.
6th Class went on a Wonder Wander Waterford walking tour this past week as part of our SESE link with our locality. This was a big hit with the girls, they got to visit Reginald’s Tower, The People’s Park, The 9/11 Monument and much more as we went about our City Scavenger Hunt. It was thirsty work, so on our way back to school, The Granary Café in Waterford kindly welcomed us with hot chocolates!
Those making Confirmation have been attending Mass at St. Paul’s every second Friday, they also had an opportunity to visit the Relic of Saint Bernadette in the Cathedral.
We hope October brings just as many nice activities for 6th Class!
