Nutrition Workshop for Parents

Posted on by

The second of two Nutrition Workshops for parents took place in the Parents’ Room on Monday. Participants learned about portion sizes, sugary drinks, dealing with fussy eaters, and even tried some simple and healthy treats that children can get involved with cooking.

The workshop was very informative, interesting, interactive, and most of all helpful for parents of young children, whether they are fussy eaters or not.

Huge thanks to the DCU Nutrition and Dietetics students who facilitated the workshops.

More information and the recipes are available from Anna – just drop in and ask for them.

3rd Class Museum Visit

Posted on by

The children from 3rd Class were invited to visit the Museum of Decorative Arts and History at Collins Barracks this week.  They took part in a workshop called “If Things Could Talk” where they got to handle and examine different artifacts.  The children discussed who they thought each artifact may have belonged to and what it was used for.  Each group then gave a small presentation to the rest of the class.  We had a really enjoyable trip and hope to visit the museum again very soon.
