We went out to check on our plot today and found that our radishes and spinach was ready for picking. We washed the spinach and had a taste. It was delicious!

The PTA are organising a Sponsored Fun Walk on Thursday 18th of May, during the Walk to School Week.
Donation: €1 per child The PTA are using money raised to provide some refreshments at the 6th class graduation evening in June. Please make sure your child comes to school with a coat and is wearing runners. Extra food and water should be included in their lunch bags. Parents are welcome to join us on the walk. Dear Parents,
During Intercultural May, we are planning to have a Powerstown World Music radio where songs from different countries will be played throughout the school. If your family would like to request a song, please send an audio/ Youtube link to Elaine at [email protected], including your child's name and class. Alternatively, you can hand your written request into the office. We would appreciate your cooperation in ensuring that all lyrics are appropriate for our pupils. Thank you - we look forward to hearing all your musical requests! Every day in the Rose Class we have DEAR time. DEAR, or 'drop everything and read' is an allotted time in the day where everyone gets their book to read for 10 sustained, focussed minutes. As the weather was so nice today, we took our books outside to read before we went to PE with Larry!
This week we have been learning about the Titanic. In history we listened to the story of the ship from the ship yard to the disaster in the Atlantic. In art we discussed sea pollution, waterproofing and buoyancy and designed and made floating, waterproof boats from plastic bottles, duct tape and cardboard. In geography we looked at global climates and discussed how the Titanic must have been travelling in a sub polar area in order to collide with an ice berg.
