Lauren in Junior Infants did great work tracing over her letters with her pencil today. She even wrote her name herself! Keep it up Lauren! Wow Lauren!  

Well done Michael! Michael in Junior Infants made a car park with lego today. It even had space for a helicopter! Well done Michael, so imaginative! A very well planned car park!    

We are very excited to be doing drama this month in third class. We are scriptwriters and enjoying creating our own dialogues – the dramatics of it all. Today was our very first day making up our own short plays. We performed them for each other in our groups AND, just like in Hollywood, we performed a few takes! “Show me your very best freeze frame… And, Action” – Miss Farren Have a look at our very best freeze frame!  

Yay! Well done to some of the Junior Infant boys who know know all their 42 Jolly Phonics sounds! Their blending of 3 letter words is coming along quite nicely also!  

6th Class were really proud to present their class sketch before the Christmas performance of Jack and the Beanstalk. We spent many weeks plotting and planning a funny sketch, and we wrote the whole play ourselves! We wanted to include some funny in-jokes from our time in 6th Class so far (here’s why we put in a reference to the Budget!) and we also wanted to include some funny characters and well-known figures! Have a listen to the play, we hope you enjoyed it! We loved every second of planning, writing and performing it. With such characters, how could it be any more entertaining?!  

On December 17th, the students of St. Peter’s continued a now annual tradition of performing a Roald Dahl Revolting Rhyme musical. Having performed The Three Pigs, Cinderella, Snow White and Goldilocks in the past few years, it was now time for Jack and the Beanstalk. 3rd to 6th Class treated us to an amazing evening’s entertainment. We performed the show twice to packed audiences and we got a great reaction! Well done to everyone for their superb effort. We hope you enjoy looking back on the evening through our blogpost below! Snaps from the side of the stage! Highlights from the... 

6th Class embraced the festive spirit in December and planned a Secret Santa in class. The gifts were thoughtful, personalised, homemade and delivered with the best of fun, laughter and friendship. What more could you want? We also had a lovely lunch of ‘Christmas sandwiches’ – delicious! What a lovely way to finish off a term with so many great highlights. Just do a search for ‘6th Class’ above to catch up with everything we’ve been getting up to! Well done guys! Have a luck at some of our snaps from the Christmas half day!  

This December, 2nd class were busier than Santa’s elves making and sewing Christmas decorations for their families. They made Christmas logs, sewed Christmas decorations and stockings. Some of us even used our Christmas logs in the middle of the table during Christmas dinner. Check out our Animoto of all our decorations on the last day before the holidays.
