It has been a very busy start to a new term in 3rd and 4th class.

Last week the boys worked collaboratively to create amazing  dramas based on well-known stories. After careful planning, writing scripts and planning props, the boys put on an amazing show within the class. Dramas included scripts based upon the stories of ‘Tír na nÓg’, ‘Cú Chualainn’, ‘Charlotte’s Web’, and ‘The Three Little Pigs’

On Monday, the boys were given a fantastic opportunity to attend the workshop ‘Fighting Words’. Set up with the assistance of Roddy Doyle, a favourite author of the Joey boys, the workshop allowed the boys to display their unique creativity and imagination. With the help of real-life authors and illustrators the boys got to publish their own books.

The story entitled ‘The Toe attack’ is a definite must read. Click on the link below to read it online.

Also a very Happy Birthday to Cameron who got a lovely singing to during the workshop.
