Printed apple trees

Today we used real apples from teacher's tree to print really realistic autumn apple trees.
We used paints for the trees and the leaves, and we used the apples to print on our own red apples. They look great.

Clay mini beasts

Artists at work
The finished bugs
We were very creative in our art class today and we used clay, feathers, google eyes, matchsticks, pipe cleaners and glitter to make fabulous, fantastic bugs.

Mini beast paintings

Inspired by our mini beast hunt, we painted the mini beasts we found in the school grounds today.
Remember to click on pictures to see them enlarged.
We really learned a lot about mini beasts, bugs and insects today.....
...and we had a lot of fun exploring the nature around us!

Galway jerseys

We are so proud of our Galway senior and minor hurling teams who will play in the ALL IRELAND HURLING FINALS next Sunday in Croke Park, and of our Galway camogie team who will play in the CAMOGIE FINAL the following Sunday in Croke Park.
 Today we made origami (Japanese paper folded) GAA jerseys and painted them in the Galway colours....maroon and white!
(We made the colour maroon by mixing red and blue paints together).
COME ON GALWAY!
