Class Blog for 5th Class
What an exciting first day back we had today! We met our new teachers and some new friends and we played in our new yard and classrooms. A huge thank you to everybody who made both the indoor and outdoor spaces happen. The children were so happy in school today!
Our fantastic Quilt Maker has completed the quilt in County Cork and it is en route back to us! She said it was her favourite project of 2021. Watch this space!
Welcome to our school quilt project! In a year where it has been very hard to come together as a whole school, Maeve came up with this idea as a way to beat the bubbles and bring us together. Every child and adult in the school is decorating a fabric square with a picture of what they love and missed about school. They will then be combined into a patchwork style quilt to display in our school forever. The cotton squares are the colours used in the Educate Together logo.
It’s a highlight of every morning to see who has finished their beautiful square. We will be posting them to the quilt maker shortly.
Cathy organised a huge order of books in lots of different languages. She researched the countries that the children of our school have family in and made sure these languages will be represented in our class libraries. Hurrah!
