Mrs Gibbons’ Class, Ms Smith’s Class and Ms Galligan’s Class walked to the Fire Station on Tuesday.
When we got there we had to wait at the wall. We met Firefighters John and Phillip.
First, we went to the locker room and we learned about what starts fires.
Next we went to the fire truck. We saw the things that firefighters need when there’s a fire and we got to go into the fire truck. We got a blast of the siren as we left.
It was so much fun.
Junior Infants have been very busy creating our classroom garden. We first started by planting seeds for our windowsills and each group, The Bees, The Butterflies, The Owls and The Frogs planted sunflowers. We also wanted to create an outside garden. Here we planted bedding plants and bulbs. Everyone took turns in the planting process. We now have the big responsibility of looking after and tending to our garden. Each day a student is picked as ‘Head Gardener’ and has the job of watering the flowers. We are looking forward to watching our garden blossom and grow into something beautiful.
