School Tour to 'Tayto Park' 2011

From rope ladders to ab-sailing the smarties did it all on their school tour, and we even had time to learn a little bit about the 2 million Taytos that are made in Ashbourne Co. Meath each day!!
We all enjoyed the day, and had our fill of Taytos too!

Take a look at our video and maybe you can tell you're parents a little bit about your day.
Why dont you write a recount story about the day, dont forget to use the our headings;
Title;
Setting,
Event
Conclusion.
Hope you enjoy the video....
p.s. you can practise you're shuffling at home to the music!!

Intercultural Day 2011

Today Scoil Bhríde Primary School celebrated 'Intercultural Day'. Each class leraned about some of the different cultures from continents accross the globe. Can you remember anything about the following cultures;

The Mafi Tribe

The Egyptians

South Africa

Australia

America

China.

Then each class was put under the spotlights, as they sang an read poems from all the different countries we had learned about. Take a look at this video we have made to see more!!

Trocáire Update!!

Thanks for all the help Scoil Bhríde recieved in their 'Trócaire Lenten Campaign'. We raised a grand total of €240. 72c With the help of all the smarties collecting money each morning during Lent. This money will mean a lot to all the poor places like Honduras, which we made a video of earlier in the year!

Intercultural Day

Intercultural day at Scoil Bhríde is soon approaching, so we decided to make a video about two children, Chad from Kenya and Yoko from China. We looked at Chad's life in Ireland, and we saw how different it was to Yoko's.

What was the difference between the two characters?

Could the children have made a difference to Yoko's life?

Why do you think Yoko had a much harder time in Ireland than Chad did?

Can you make a difference to somebody new in your school?

We hope you enjoy our first clay motion movie, and feel free to dance at the end!!

We hope to hear from you soon;
Mr. O Regan and the scoil Bhríde Smarties!
