3rd class visited the Lifetime Lab
Friday, February 24th, 2012
On Weds 21st our class went to the Lifetime Lab. We learned all about energy and forces but focused mainly on magnetism and electricity.
We explored the relationship between magnets and compasses whilst locating points on a map of Cork City.
We learned that a path around which electricity can flow is called a CIRCUIT.
We then used what we know about electricity circuits to help us with some building projects.
Lights in a model house.
Steady Hand Buzzer Game(at least its not her good hand in a sling!)
Clown Bow Spinner We just about had time for a little bit of fun!

Ash Wednesday
Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012
Today is Ash Wednesday. The children of all classes received the ashes today. It marks the beginning of Lent.
“Remember, You are dust, and unto dust you shall return.
Turn away from sin and be faithful to the gospel.
Repent and hear the Good News”
Some of the children of Fifth class are giving up:
watching TV, white bread, sweets, crisps, fizzy drinks and biscuits.
Some have chosen to do their homework quicker, fight less with younger brothers and sisters, help out more at home and to get more fresh air. All sounds good, only 40 days to go!!
