February was a busy month for the children in 4th Class with the children making Brigid’s crosses and Chinese Lanterns, surveying other classes for Maths activities on Data and Bar graphs and having Dance with Bernie and Tag Rugby with Leinster Rugby.

We had our STEM Try Five workshop number 3 with scientists from TUD Grangegorman. This one was on electricity learned about electrons, protons, flow of electricity and circuits. At the end the children made Star Projectors using a simple electrical circuit.

The class began their group History research project on Ancient Egypt where they began working in groups to research different aspects of Ancient Egyptian life from mummification, the Pharaohs and much more.

As part of learning about Chinese New Year and their zodiac animals, the class in Art created paper Chinese lanterns.

Last night, eight students from 4th, 5th and 6th Class attended the Credit Union Table Quiz in the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Blanchardstown making up two teams of four.
There were 52 teams taking part in the quiz. Our two wonderful teams finished 7th and 10th overall. They should be very proud of themselves for the hardwork they have put in. A massive thanks to Mr Delaney for all his hard work in organising the teams for the event!
