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.

Looking Back in Junior Infants

24/9/2012

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?

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 !

Welcome to the fifth class page! We will be putting up some of our work and activities throughout the year so make sure to check in with us.
Mé Féin
Bíonn muid ag foghlaim faoi 'Mé féin' ar scoil. Rinne muid 'Dialanna Scoile', féach ar ár obair...

Art
We looked at the work of the Austrian artist Friedrich Hundertwasser. He used lots of colour in his work and believed in 'cool' tones and 'warm' tones. Here is some information on him...

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.
