A great tradition of education in Waterford since 1798

Third Class

Mrs O'Donoghue

December has flown by as we have been very busy. We enjoyed working together with our buddies and completing our cribs. We had so much fun at our Christmas concert in the Church singing ‘Oh What a Glorious Night’. We went to the cinema to see ‘Magic Reindeer Saved Santa’s Sleigh’. We went to Winterval where we visited the wishing tree and put  a decoration on it. We went on the carousel and saw the crib in the Church. We are so excited for Christmas break with our families. 

November…

We started November with Science week. We got to go to the SETU Arena for a fantastic talk on saving Our Planet. We also talked to a scientist on a webinar and conducted lots of experiments in our classroom. We also visited SETU Arena to practice for Peace Proms, it’s getting close now and we are so excited. We made ice skates in art and it got us excited for the start of Winterval. We started Zumba which is so much fun. We also had a sustainable workshop which we enjoyed designing camels with recycled materials. We cannot wait for December!

October…

October was an extremely busy month for us. Our first day back we had a big surprise and watched a show called Beauty and the Beast. It was great fun and we loved it when Mrs.O’Donoghue had to dance. Maths week was full of fun activities. We enjoyed all the maths games especially when we got the freedom of choice to visit one of the third classrooms and pick whatever activity we liked.  We have done lots of art for Halloween and we loved clay pumpkins and scary ghosts. Some girls got medals and certificates from the Summer Stars in the library. We have been learning about our families this month and we loved playing games at home and talking with our grandparents.  We are so excited to dress up and really looking forward to our week off with our families.

September…

We have been busy settling into 3rd Class this month by learning and having so much fun. We have been so busy but here are a few things that have stood out for us. We have enjoyed lots of art including our Self portrait, Colour Wheel Eye and Autumn tree. We have learned the counties and provinces of Ireland and really enjoyed filling these in on our maps. Friendship week was when we got to meet our buddy class and we were so excited. We got to know our buddies and played games in the yard with them. We enjoyed making teeth with our playdoh while we were learning about healthy eating habits. We were also very proud of Reeva who won a medal at the county schools cross country event in the RSC.
