Well done Jamie, super work! Before lunch we worked on our play, 'A Christmas Carol' which is coming together just in time for Tuesdays performance in the hall. In the afternoon 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th class including teachers, SNAs and Mr Candon all went carol singing at the I.F.S.C

Christmas Cribb

There are 15 days left till Christmas and someones special birthday. Christmas would not be here without that special someone and his name is Jesus. His Mother and Father Mary and Joseph travelled to Bethlehem. There was no room in the inn so they had to stay in the stable and the three wise men came with gifts for the baby Jesus.

Our Instruments

Yesterday 3rd class made some brilliant instruments. We made the instruments out of paper, bottles and glue. Our table made maracas. The boys at the other tables also made bongos, tambourines and a xylophone. Today we will paint them.

Ancient Egypt

Welcome to our new blog. We are the 3rd class boys of St Laurence O'Tooles C.B.S. This week we learnt all about Egypt. Did you know there are over 80 pyramids in Egypt. Some people think they were built to point towards the sun and the stars, so that the dead person's spirt could fly to heaven.

Here is some of our project work.
