💨 S.T.E.M. Activities 💨
Here are some of our windmills built as part of the Microsoft Dreamspace programme. Some really good ideas on display and lots of fun had too!
As part of the Microsoft Dreamspace programme we designed and created our own board games. It was great to show the younger classes how to play the games we created ourselves.

For Maths week we focused on the maths involved in various different card games. We had the pleasure of having a grandparent/ card shark provide some assistance with the rules and the strategies to use along the way.
Great fun was had in the run up to Christmas practicing and performing our Christmas play.

Some of the children from 4th, 5th and 6th class visited 2 local nursing homes to deliver the St. Brigids Crosses they made to the residents. The residents were delighted to receive them along with personal hand written prayers with each cross.
We were busy making crosses for St. Brigid's Day.
