We have been getting ready for the All Ireland Hurling Final in our class. We painted Galway flags to show our support. We hope Galway will beat Kilkenny on Sunday. We were shouting "c'mon Galway" for our photographs.  Last Thursday over 60 4th, 5th and 6th class pupils took part in a tag rugby blitz which was held in Dangan. A fun, action packed day was had by all with some great skill on display by all our players. 'Tag' is proving very popular this year and as a result we will be running a school league which will take place over two lunch breaks starting from next week. Mr Mannion will provide all the details of this league next Monday. In the meantime, check out some of the great action shots of the Bushypark boys and girls below!

6th Class have been busy learning all about World War 2 and then created newspapers. We wrote out drafts in our copy and when we were happy we published them on a piece of A4 paper. We then dabbed the pages with wet teabags to make them look old.        This week we have been looking at photos of us all as babies and trying to guess who we are. We also had a look at some of the clothes and toys we used to have when we were small babies. Our clothes don't fit us anymore because we are too big and we don't play with our baby toys any more either. Here are some pictures of us with the clothes, toys and books we don't need anymore. Can you guess who we are in our baby pictures?        
 Táimíd gléasta suas.  Is mise Mac. Cé tusa?  Is mise Mó. Cé tusa?
 We took Podge to see our school garden.  We love to take Podge, Buster and Penny Pigeon home with us. We then read about their adventures. Penny Pigeon has a lovely new nest!  In Third Class we decorated our wall with chalk pastel pictures !
In 3rd Class we made up poems about our favourite animals !
Gorillas Gorillas are big and strong They slap their bellies with their handies ! Gorillas are funny And they show off too I have a poster of a gorilla They like sunbathing in zoos Gorillas are as hairy as Mary ! They are cool in the zoo They rule ! I wish they were in my school ! By Maitiú Dogs I like dogs They are so cute My aunty has a dog Her name is Ash She is black and calm. Dogs are clean Dogs are sparkly Dogs should be treated like human beings. Dogs are fun Dogs like toys Dogs like food as well as boys. Dogs like walks Dogs like the sun Dogs like rolling over As well as having fun ! By Aoibhín  Chuaigh Seán Bán abhaile le Siobhán.

ENGLISH: Poetry
Mini Bot by Doireann McCabe
I am little Mini Bot
I have to charge myself a lot
With a body of iron and steel
And instead of feet there’s four small wheels
I used to wear a hat on my head
Now I have a little light that’s red
I have a computer not a brain
But I have brilliant test marks, yay!
Then I went to school one day
And all the kids wanted to play
With this new kind of robot toy
That caught the eye of every girl and boy
But then I saw it, around the bend
A little green robot head
So then I got a robot friend
And now this poem has come to an end.
