Our Trip to Phibsboro Library By Ellie
Today we went to Phibsboro Library. We went to see an author called Erika McGann. She spoke about her books and she read a bit for us. She showed us some covers for her book Broken Spell. The covers were amazing. They were all so good. I couldn’t chose which one was my favourite. She was the winner of the Waverton Good Read Chidlren’s Prize 2014 for the Demon Notebook, the first in her magical series about Grace and her four friends. She gave us copies of the Fairytale Trap. She also gave all of us bookmarks and posters. It was the first time I ever met an author. And on the way back on the bus me and my friends couldn’t stop talking about it! It was a fantastic day!
Here are some of the pupils of 3rd Class who were VERY excited to be starting swimming lessons last Friday! They will be making the journey to the National Aquatic Centre every week with the other pupils from 4th, 5th and 6th Class.
