We Made Fairy Houses!!
In the last few weeks we have been bringing in supplies to make our fairy houses! On Thursday we made a start and then on Friday we finished them. Some of the sixth class helped us, some were in pairs and some worked on their own. Altogether we made fourteen fairy houses. We all had so much fun making them and we hope you enjoy our pictures!!!
On Tuesday the 14th of March 5th and 6th classes went on a very enjoyable tour of U.C.C. Firstly we were delighted to each be given a gown to wear for the tour as when the university first opened all students wore those gowns! We felt a bit like we were in a scene from Harry Potter!! We learned lots of history about U.C.C. We particularly enjoyed visiting the Aula Maxima where we saw all the really old books and the portraits of the presidents of U.C.C. We also visited the Honan Chapel and enjoyed looking at all the fabulous stained glass windows! We heard all about the Quad and we visited the observatory. We particularly enjoyed opening up the roof (see photos!) and seeing the roof turning on tracks!! To finish we all received our U.C.C. certificate and got our photos taken. We had a fantastic morning and look forward to being students there in the future!!! Thanks U.C.C. for the goodie bags!!
These are our Star Growers for this week!!!!

Afrin’s Birthday!!!!!!
On the 9th of February it was Afrin’s 11th birthday!!!!! Her parents brought in a big cake. Everyone including our teacher, Rachel and Michelle had a slice. The cake was so delicious, some people asked for seconds!! We all had so much fun and Afrin had a great time on her birthday.
We hope you enjoy some of the pictures!
Well done to the 4th class boys who made it to the final of the indoor hurling blitz in Bishopstown yesterday. Greenmount NS topped their group and won their semi final to progress to the decider where they lost out narrowly to a strong Ovens NS side. Well done!
