The Senior Infants created their very own rain cloud in a jar! We used shaving foam to act as fluffy clouds and we really enjoyed seeing the rain drops drip through!
The Skittles Experiment.
We made our very own volcano using baking powder, vinegar, water, food colouring and some washing up liquid. We really enjoyed watching the chemical reaction!
The Café
We are learning all about the café this month. We have been making menus and yummy pizzas, we have been using our playdoh to make items for the café, and we love acting out the role of the chef/waiter/waitress/customer at the role play station!
We have fun learning our tricky words while building our fine motor skills!
Things are getting spooky in Senior Infants!
Space Week
Senior Infants created beautiful moons for Space Week. Well done Senior Infants!
Autumnal Art
We have some budding artists in Senior Infants!
Autumn Walk
Senior Infants went on an autumn walk to the hugging tree in search for the many signs of autumn around us. We made leaf rubbings and remembered to make a wish!
