We were very lucky to get our Fire Station visit in before the schools closed. The children were given a chance to wear a real fireman's hat, examined the different equipment in the fire truck and got to sit inside the fire engine! Our visit was cut a little short as the firemen/women got a call and had to go! It was all very exciting! Thank you so much to Bray Fire Station for having us!
The boys and girls from Ms O’Sullivan’s class planted some Giant Sunflower seeds with Joe in pots in our Polytunnel yesterday. We are really looking forward to seeing them grow. When they are tall enough we will replant them outside in our sunny garden and then we will hopefully get to watch as they grow as tall as Joe himself !
Mr Creamers 3rd class came and read book to Ms O’Sullivan’s Junior Infants children. We loved listening to the stories.
Today we learned that gravity is a force through our paper helicopter investigation.
Ms Cawley provided all classes in the junior building with yoga and mindfulness this week for be well month.
We had fun designing bridges in 3rd class and figuring out how to make them stronger. Have a look at our photos!

A big thanks to parents Adrianne, Audrey and Sharon for helping us all day with our Christmas art in Ms Brady’s second class and to all of the wonderful parent helpers for making last Friday a day to be remembered for all of the kids at St Fergals.
Our Junior Infant classes were visited by a lovely, enthusiastic group of first years who read the children some fabulous stories such as ‘The Gruffalo’, ‘Monkey Puzzle’, ‘Room on the Broom’ and ‘Bedtime at last’ in small groups. It was great to see some of our past pupils back displaying such confidence and giving our young children such an amazing experience.

Our Junior Infants have settled in wonderfully with a great start to their first school year. They love to play and have a huge imagination with creative toys building Mr Sargent’s office, giant towers, rollercoasters and more. They’ve spent time painting and playing at our Aistear time and also tried out some Montessori activities. They’ve enjoyed playtime in our sandpit before the weather changed and joined our older peers at Assembly on Fridays. Their Halloween costume day raised a large donation for Pieta house and as you can see they loved wearing their costumes in 😀
Senior Infants were very lucky to go to Ballywaltrim library to listen to a brilliant story by Icelandic storyteller Hjörleifur Stefánsson.

Special thanks to Ballywaltrim Library for getting us involved in this brilliant festival!
