Since March, First Class have been busy planting and caring for strawberries and potatoes in our school garden. We’ve been watering them, checking their growth, and keeping them healthy — and now we’re so excited to see our first strawberries ripening and our potato plants getting big and strong!

Alongside our gardening, we’ve also been learning lots in the classroom. We completed fantastic projects on Australia, exploring its animals, culture, and landmarks. We also spent time learning about Irish wildflowers and native Irish birds — spotting some around the school grounds and recognising their names and features.
