Active Junior Room
November 06, 2019
Our junior room pupils love their Playball activities every Monday ! The aim of Playball is to introduce young children to constructive and enjoyable sport participation through various age-appropriate programs. All of the programs have a "multi-activity" approach, ensuring a competent foundation in all the popular sports played at school. Check out these active kids :)
Science week!
October 23, 2019
This week is science week. We are enjoying fun activities in all our classes. In the Infants Room we talked about materials and discussed what caused to float or sink. We predicted, tested and recorded. All classes went outside to explore the environment in beautiful Blackrock. Some classes were looking at the Autumn changes and other classes were engaged in engineering projects. On Wednesday, Digiwiz visited all classes. We made drawing robots and we used 3D pens. We used our 'maths eyes' to count and plan found items for Autumn art activities. In St. Michael's we love science and maths and are working towards our DPSM award.
