Fighting words workshop

On the 13th of June, Ms. Cassidy's class were very fortunate to be chosen by Mrs. Shannon to attend a 'Fighting Words' workshop. Fighting Words is a creative writing centre established by Roddy Doyle and Sean Love. Inspired by 826 National in the United States, Fighting Words is located on Behan Square, Russell Street, Dublin 1 – (very close to Croke Park.) Fighting Words workshops are created and run by volunteer writing tutors including professional writers - novelists, screen-writers, journalists, poets - aspiring writers, student teachers from DCU and all the Dublin colleges of education, retired teachers and many more people who are just keen to be involved in creative work.
 
Fighting Words helps students of all ages to develop their writing skills and to explore their love of writing. They provide story-telling workshops for primary school groups and during our workshop our very talented girls created a story entitled 'The Magical Lamp'. Their writing skills were that impressive that the writing tutors decided to publish our story on the ‘Fighting Words’ website so that everyone can enjoy it!! Please have a read of our wonderful story. We hope you enjoy reading it!https://www.fightingwords.ie/stories/magical-lamp

Adopt a Tree Project

22/3/2018

0 Comments

 
For this activity, 4th class children will “adopt” a tree, deepening their awareness of individual trees over time and encouraging a greater understanding and appreciation of their local environment. Our girls have chosen to adopt an Apple tree in Albert College park.  We will observe this tree over a period of time and record changes and observations. Students will carry out experiments such as designing a diagram to show how the tree interacts with the environment, other plants and animals.

Comhghairdeas do Sarah Aboud!

​We were an sásta agus bródúil to hear that a former pupil of OLV Sarah Aboud (sister of Laila in 4th class) was rewarded a scholarship to an Gaeltacht during her first term as a student of St. Mary's secondary school. Sarah was chosen from a large number of applicants for her essay about the importance of the Irish language. Tír gan Teanga..Tír gan anim!
We wish you all the best Sarah for your future endeavors and hope you have a wonderful time in Gaoth Dobhair. Go n-eirí leat!

Last Thursday, Room 7 attended an interactive learning workshop which focused on the environmental impact of waste management and supported the development of key analytical skills such as observation, monitoring and interpretation. Students were introduced to the main options for avoiding, reusing, recycling and recovering waste. The workshop ended with the girls creating beautiful works of art all from recycled materials! They are now proudly on display outside our room.
