23rd – 27th May

Another wonderful week last week in The Children’s House! The morning classes visited Sallins primary school and we had a great tour with the vice principal where we saw the Junior Infants classrooms, library and aquarium, as well as seeing the children playing outside at snack time, so the children got a real feel for the scale of it all! The afternoon classes had a great time making stop/go signs and loved playing the crossing the road game.

This week it’s all about dinosaurs!! The morning classes will be continuing on with our project from the Big Bang and learning about the Mesozoic Era, when the reptiles ruled the earth and dinosaurs roamed around, the first flying birds evolved and flowering plants grew. The children will be making pictures to represent the era, and we will be doing lots of dinosaur drama with both morning and afternoon classes!

Dinosaurs All Around (tune: If you’re happy & you know it)

There are dinosaurs stomping all around,
There are dinosaurs stomping all around,
They are dinosaurs stomping all around, they are stomping on the ground,
There are dinosaurs stomping all around!

There are dinosaurs flying all around…
There are dinosaurs swimming all around…
They are dinosaurs eating all around…
