Paired Reading with 6th Class


World Book Day Disco


Our Book Cover Designs

Book Club in Fifth Class met today to discuss the books members are reading. It was a lovely day to do it as we are celebrating World Book Day in school.
Second and Fifth Class celebrated ‘World Book Day’ with some paired reading. The boys and girls really enjoyed the occasion.
Today the children in sixth class travelled to Scoil Dean Cussen, in Bruff, to compete in the Ficheall tournament. It was an early start for the children, but they all enjoyed playing chess (as well as a few sweet treats😊). Congratulations to all the children who took part – we are all so proud of you!
Fifth Class celebrated World Book Day completing different activities including a Zoom Session of different authors from Ireland discussing and reading their books. We also completed art based on our favourite books. Children participated in a Mega Quiz based on World Book Day. Lastly, children continued with their film study of the novel ‘Wonder’ after finishing the reading of the book this week.
Fifth class competed great work in February.
Today, Fifth Class started our March Challenge Run Around Ireland.
“Pump up the Beat” day was enjoyed by all, as we worked towards becoming more active everyday
We have a designated Active School Flag Walkway around our school. The Active School Flag Student Committee helped to plan and map out the Walkway route around our school. We like to use our Walkway throughout the school week. We integrate our Walkway with other curricular areas.
The children in Scoil Mhuire Murroe love to walk or cycle to school. The children also use their scooters to travel to school.
We enjoy our Active Breaks everyday. The classes in Scoil Mhuire Murroe have been doing lots of different activity breaks during the year. These activity Breaks are both indoors and outdoors. The Active Breaks are a great way of getting our 60 minutes of exercise. We really enjoy learning yard games and exercise with our Playground leaders, the Active Break a day timetabled activities, pur P.E. homework and much more.
Today, we planted the different seeds including potatoes, strawberries, spinach, carrots, turnip, chives and lettuce. Children enjoyed the session.
