Year of the Dragon

2012-01-27T09:32:00.000-08:00

This week Rang a Trí have been learning all about the festival of Chinese New Year. This year is the Year of The Dragon. The Dragon is said to be afraid of the colour red, of loud noises, and of fire. So it is tradition in China to light red lanterns and set off fireworks to scare the dragon away. Have a look at the boys dragons!

Congratulations Ms. Sally!

2012-01-27T09:28:00.000-08:00

Third Class were DELIGHTED to see Ms. Sally back today and so glad we got to meet gorgeous baby Lucy!! Ms. Sally thought all the boys looked really grown up since last time she was in school. One very kind Larrier brought Ms. Sally and Lucy a present in. Cian was really thoughtful and was really happy to give Ms. Sally this Mammy Chick and Baby Chick! I'm sure Lucy will love them. Well done Cian!

Making Cubes- Photography by Scott!

2012-01-27T09:22:00.000-08:00

Christmas in Lanzarote by Dylan Martin

2012-01-12T13:00:00.000-08:00

It was our last day in Lanzarote, we were staying down on the beach. We did snorkeling, banana boating, tubing, speed boating, diving and finally I was pulled home by a boat.

I was with my brother J.J, my sister Leah, Ma, Da, my Nanny, Granda, Uncle Leroy, my Aunties and my cousins. It was a great way to celebrate the last day in Lanzarote.

Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944)

2012-01-12T12:46:00.001-08:00

Wassily Kandinsky was a Russian artist. He was inspired by the work of Claude Monet. His style of art is called ABSTRACT art. Most of Kandinsky's work is inspired by geometric shapes such as circles, semi-circles, lines and angles. We took the Kandinsky painting 'Concentric Circles' and created our own pictures using crayons and paint. Have a look at all our paintings together and see how they look like a Kandinsky inspired abstract wall painting. Well done boys!!

The Ghostbusters by Aaron Smith

2011-10-26T05:57:00.000-07:00

This is the start of a really cool Ghost Busters story by Aaron......

Once upon a time there was a brave boy named Aaron. He was brave because he kicked the Headless Horseman and Freddy Krouger, Jason and lots of ghosts around. He was the head of the Ghost Busters. Here are the names of the Ghost Busters, Scott, Dylan, Callum, Ben Adam, Brandon, Nathan, Dane, Shane and Cian. They were up to their biggest treat yet and the ghosts were Ms. Stafford, Andy and Mr. O' Leary. They were very smart because they work in a freaky school that wakes me up doing the a-roo-cha-cha............to be continued!

Autumn Art

2011-10-21T10:21:00.001-07:00

Welcome Back Adam!!!

2011-10-06T11:55:00.000-07:00

Adam returned from his big trip to Australia for his sisters wedding. While Adam was away he kept a diary of his time in Australia. His diary is fantastic! The boys in our class had lots of questions for him, and Adam was full of information and facts about Australia. Adam told us all about the Eureka Tower, and made us jealous when he told us about his brothers swimming pool! He had a great time on holiday, you should ask him about Melbourne and the Australian animals he saw. Best of all Adam made it home just in time for the arrival of his new baby sister Niamh! Adam you will be a brilliant big brother and will have so much to teach Niamh! p.s.....Thanks for the Tim- Tams!

Autumn

2011-10-06T11:42:00.000-07:00

Third Class have been writing some beautiful Acrostic Poems. An Acrostic Poem uses the letters in a topic word to begin each line. Here is an example of the lovely poems....

Autumn by Cian Kinlan

A tree looses it's leaves,

Up above the trees the grey clouds float,

The conkers fall off the trees.

Up above the trees the birds are flying home.

My hands are freezing

Nanny knitting, she is the best. I love my Nanny.

3rd Class....Our First Few Weeks!

2011-09-15T11:20:00.000-07:00

Third Class have been having lots of fun, learning lots of new things in their first few weeks back. Andy brought the boys on a 'Capital Letter Hunt' around the school and they found LOADS of examples all around the school.

We also learned about mini-beasts and went looking for mini-beasts in the school yard. The boys were so brave, catching lots of spiders, woodlouse, a millipede, and even a grasshopper! We brought them back to the class for closer inspection, under a maginfying camera! Our boys are experts on invertebrates, ask them anything about them next time.

Well done Rang a Trí, great start to the new school year. Keep up the good work!

3rd Class at Pegasus Final by Tyrek and Conor

2010-06-01T01:56:00.000-07:00

Yesterday at 12, in Irish Town Staduim, Larriers played in the Pegasus cup final. They were playing against Lady's Well. Larriers got a penalty 1 minute into the first half. Unfortunately they missed it. Larriers then scored a free kick. Some players from Lady's Well were too fast for us and they had a strong team but some of our players got through their defence and nearly scored. A few minutes after our goal Lady's Well hit the post. Coming into half time one of our players got a yellow card. In the 2nd half Lady's Well got an equaliser and took the lead a few minutes before full time. Some of our players were dissappointed because they knew they could do better.

The Planets by Anthony and John

2010-05-27T01:06:00.000-07:00

There are 8 planets in the solar system. Jupiter is the biggest planet in the solar system. Did you know that Saturn is almost as big as Jupiter? But saturn has 7 rings going around that planet. So does Jupiter,Neptune,Uranus are also surrounded by rings.

The planet pluto is now called a dwarf planet. Did you know that pluto was the only planet that has not been discovered by space craft?

Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system even though Mercury is closer to the sun. This is because Mercury got burnt out and cooled down like a piece of black toast. Did you know that the sun is a big huge star?

Mars is just all red rocks and sand. Earth is the only planet to support life. The colours of the planets are black, brown, blue, red, pink, grey, dark white, and there are 2 blue.

Simile Poem

2010-01-20T04:10:00.000-08:00

The writer of this poem
Is nicer than a model

As fast as a car

I'm as lovely as a cow
As funny as a pair of shorts
And smaller than an ant.

Moses and The Burning Bush by Ade

2010-01-14T05:33:00.000-08:00

Halloween in China and Germany

2009-10-22T05:30:00.000-07:00

Another tradition in Ireland is that we sometimes scoop out the inside of a pumpkin and put a light in it. In Germany people put away all their knives because they don't want to hurt any ghosts that will be in their house. In china they take out photos of dead relatives and put food and water in front of them.

Halloween Traditions

2009-10-19T05:36:00.000-07:00

Every Halloween we do some fun things and we call these things traditions. We fill a basin with water and stick our heads in to try to pick up money. We go around to different houses and get sweets and money. This is called trick-or-treating. My favourite tradition is the bonfire because I have lots of fun with my friends.

Magpies are black and white but have some green in their wings. They like to eat mice and ticks. They are often seen perching off the backs of cows picking off maggots and insects.

Our Stories

2009-06-16T03:42:00.000-07:00

The Burglar

One day I was in a jewellery shop and a big, huge diamond, red and shiny, was behind a glass case. I was terrified when suddenly a man with a gun burst into the shop and began to shoot at the glass case. He took loads of jewellery and put it in his pocket. I was so frightened, but I managed to ring the Gardaí. In no time at all, the Gardaí arrived and chased the burglar away. The man that owned the shop was so happy to get his jewellery back that he decided to reward me with the beautiful red diamond. To this day, the diamond hangs on my wall.

The End

The Robbers

I woke up in my bedroom because I heard a loud noise outside my house. I looked out to see two robbers breaking in my kitchen window. One of them was wearing a black jumper, black trousers and a black hat. I could not see the other one clearly because it was so dark. The robbers looked up and saw me! I rang the police as quickly as I could and they began to chase me because they heard me on the phone. One of them tried to shoot me!I ran away and the police came and saved the day.

In our class we are learning about the life cycle of a Frog. We saw little eggs called frogspawn in a big tank of water. They all grew a tail and I think they are funny. The tadpoles use a tail to swim. They do not have their legs and arms yet.

Slime Lion

The lion had committed a crime,
The lion fell into slime,
The slime went on his mane,
He didn’t get home on time.

They really hate cats,
Their four legs are fast
Cats sleep on mats.
