This week 3rd class took on the tricky STEM challenge of building their own bridge!

They had to research bridges and then design one based on their research. They could use any materials they wanted but the bridge must have been strong enough to hold a food can.

Once they had their ideas down on paper, they began the hard (but fun) part – building the bridge. And when this was completed they tested out its strength by using a food can on top.

Some had to amend some areas and make slight changes but the results are fantastic, check out the pictures below, I was so impressed.

Super work rang a 3 🌟

This week, we listened to the story ‘Commotion in the Ocean’ by Giles Andreae. This book was full of lots of short rhymes that told us about all of the creatures that live in the sea! 🐟 🐬

Senior Infants taught their teacher about sea creatures!🐠

🐠 Some children wrote about the shark, one wrote a story about a crab named Buttercup. Miss Conway even got to learn some new information about the big blue whale and the jiggly jellyfish. Miss Conway had a great time learning all of this new information from senior infants. Thanks for teaching your teacher! 🐠

Senior Infants created their own Jellyfish! 🐳 🐋


🐠The Senior Infants got creative at home and made their own jellyfish! Each of them looked amazing but no two jellyfish looked the same! Some children used paint, some used markers and Rhys even used his nerf gun bullets! Well Done to everyone! 🐠

One Senior Infant found some real Sea Creatures! 🐳 🐋


🐠This boy headed down the beach and found some real sea creatures! Here you can see the jellyfish and the crab that he found! Thanks to his Mam for sending on these super pictures! 🐠
