Titanic Poetry
Third class enjoyed learning about the sinking of the famous ship the Titanic in 1912 during Drama, History and English lessons. They wrote fantastic acrostic poems about the ship which you can see in the picture of our display below.
Fourth class visit the RV Celtic Explorer!
On Thursday the 25th of May, Fourth class were invited to a private
tour of Ireland’s National research vessel the Celtic Explorer as it docked in the Galway Harbour.
We
met the crew and scientists that work on the vessel and the Remotely Operated
Holland 1.
We
visited the Dry Lab, where scientists collect data from the ocean that is used
to produce maps of Ireland’s seabed. We also visited the Wet Lab, where
scientists collect marine samples and research marine species that live deep in
the ocean. We were allowed to hold a small sample of water dated at 450 years
old and worth €28,000!
One
of our favourite moments was sitting in the Captain’s seat on the bridge and
using his binoculars! We really enjoyed the day and learned so much about the
the ocean.
Turas Scoile
1st and 2nd
Class enjoyed a wonderful school tour recently to Athenry Heritage Centre and
Turoe Pet Farm. In Athenry, we engaged in a number of fun filled activities,
including a maze race, archery and we then dressed up in costumes and learned
what life was like in medieval times.
From there, we ventured on to
Turoe Pet Farm, where we enjoyed playing in the soft play area, a tour to see
all the animals living in Turoe and finally some fun on an enormous bouncing
castle.
We thoroughly enjoyed our day and
the weather added to the occasion. Thanks to everyone who made our school tour
possible.
