Stanley has surprised us again! This time he got his photo taken with An Taoiseach Enda Kenny.

Stanley began his week with a trip to Dubai.

 

He then headed for Amsterdam in The Netherlands. While he was here he visited the secret annex where Anne Frank wrote her famous diary. He also met some famous faces!

Here he is overlooking the Royal Palace in Dam Square, Amsterdam.

He also managed to make some time to visit The Grand Canyon, The Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas, Sydney Harbour and Summer Bay!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After all that he still managed to make some time to dress up for Halloween!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next Stanley went to see a Soccer match. He watched Plymouth Argyle take on Northhampton Town. He got to meet Conor Hourihane one of the players for Plymouth Argyle. They were very impressed with Stanley’s skills and he was awarded Sky Bet Man of the Match!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He got to see the cup the Cork Ladies Football team won this year.

Stanley is currently staying with a celebrity! Graham Norton emailed this photo of Stanley at Graham’s house! They were on their way to rehearsals for Graham’s show!

Stanley had a busy weekend at A wedding!

He waited outside number 10 Downing Street to try and catch a glimpse of the British Prime Minister. We learned his name is David Cameron and he lives here.

Stanley gets an art lesson!

Here he is boarding his flight to Las Vegas. We learned Las Vegas is situated in the state of Nevada beside California.

Next he went to a graduation ceremony in CIT. We learned about the different types of robes people wear for the ceremonies.

On Tuesday he travelled in the cockpit with one of the children’s uncles. We are hoping he stayed away from the controls!

Here is 1st officer Stanley on Wednesday reporting to Capt. O’ Neill for duty on a flight to Majorca! He has a lot of flying experience!

Making time for his 5 a day. We are teaching Stanley about the Food Pyramid!

Oh his way to the Think Pink Fashion Show.

Taking some time out for a spin on some motorcycles.

FINALLY after a very busy week Stanley just about had some time to make an appearance in The Bandon Opinion! Stanley went to meet Graham Norton at the opening of The Graham Norton River Walk and got his autograph! We hear Graham asked to have his photo taken with Stanley!

 

 

In our class we read a funny book called Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown. The book is about a young boy named Stanley who is accidentally squished “as flat as a pancake” when a bulletin board falls on him while he is asleep. Stanley is very flat but otherwise fine. Stanley’s family did not have enough money to send him on a train or plane to visit a friend in California, so they decided to fold him up and put him in a large envelope and mail him. The story goes on to tell how Stanley discovers some real advantages to being flat. Our class has decided that we would like to do the same with our Flat Stanley’s.

 

We are posting our own Flat Stanley’s to friends and relatives all around Ireland and the WORLD. We will put our photos up here when they arrive.

We have a map displayed on our classroom window to keep track of all the places Stanley has visited.

We worked very hard to finish our scarecrows and we think they look great! If only they could scare away wasps too!

We are very busy in 2nd class working on our scarecrows. We brought different types of fabric to school to dress our scarecrows! We are working hard to construct their faces, hats, clothes, hands, hair and feet! We look forward to showing you the final product!
