On Thursday 21st May, the children from the Junior Room were bubbling with excitement for their school tour! They visited Palytown in Tullamore.
Everyone had a great time. There was so much to do there - from blasting off into outer space to being arrested and getting thrown in jail to dressing up to playing with loads of wonderful toys. No one was bored during the day!

The speed at which they leapt into action to find the Easter Eggs was something!!! Highly doubt they'll move as fast if asked to clean their bedrooms!!!

The children in the Junior Room took advantage of the rare sunny day we have had this year to head outside and develop our ball handling skills - such as throwing and catching. And not just using footballs but using beanbags too. And a thank you to our TY students and past pupils Aaron and Cody for helping out!

This gives us the opportunity to engage in some free play and structured play. We get the chance to interact with other in our class, make the junior infants feel right at home in school and develop skills such as sharing, turn taking and chatting to each other.
