Meet
Flat Stanley! Flat Stanley began life as an ordinary American boy. One
night while sleeping, a notice board fell from the wall and squashed
him flat. Whereas this might pose a problem for the rest of us, Stanley
uses it to his advantage. He can now, for example, travel the world
in nothing larger than an envelope and learn about other countries and
cultures.
Our
special little visitor came from Nebraska, has been to the Phillipine
Islands, has now arrived in Ireland and is being hosted by a member
of Fourth Class. We wish him well - may he have a wonderful, educational
experience here in Ireland!
Fourth
Class are doing a project on pets - focusing particularly on petcare.
On
Friday, 24th February, they had a petday. The class became a little
zoo-like and I believe, all inmates behaved impeccably. Their project
is near completion - last year 4th were lucky enough to win a widescreen
TV and DVD player for their project on rainforests.
Fifth
Class tried their hand at some engineering, with the annual STEPS
K'NEX Challenge. The class were set the challenge of buildiing a
truck that was capable of holding different types of recyclable
materials - in other words, it had to have compartments.
This
is the third year we have been involved in this competition and
as always we are grateful to STEPS (The Science,
Technology and Engineering Programme
for Schools) for giving us the opportunity.
Saturday,
25th February and the Girls' Brigade competition. What a terrific
team! Unfortunately they didn't win, but they looked great and performed
really well with their pom-poms.
Most
of the girls are members of
Kill o' the Grange N.S.
